Blood mixed with lemon and a breach of trust

My poem "Every Night and All" is now online at Nightmare Magazine.

Most of the pertinent information is contained in the author's note, but I wouldn't have one of its lines without Jill Paton Walsh. I wrote the poem in October; in December, over the phone and a distance of eight states, I did sing someone down.

Makes me think about that time I did prayers for the dying over the phone to the ICU.

I'm not sure "liking" is the right word for this one, but yes.

Lovely poem, and appropriate for the season.
