Hummingbird
Ms. AyeVee
The hummingbird flies in spite of the wind.
It may sway back & forth
But it's wings never stop beating.

Poet, Teacher, Community Organizer & Las Vegas native, Ashley Vargas—Ms. AyeVee—is a performance fireball of metaphor and feeling, flashing light on the struggles of divine average souls. She brings that moment of instant recognition that binds artist to audience, that makes us root for her. Beyond the trash-traps of subjugation commercialism that dominate public messaging, her poems reveal there can be a better way. Her work has been published by Helen: a literary magazine, Other Magazine, Zeitgeist Press, Petite Hound Press, The Red Rock Review, and Double Down by Nevada Humanities.
