You blasphemed the aspidistra and something awful has come down that chimney

My poem "Berakhah" (for Peter Burson) has been accepted by [livejournal.com profile] erzebet for Jabberwocky. Meanwhile, I have the sempiternal con crud. One of these days, I promise: a post with content. Till then, I suggest you read [livejournal.com profile] seajules's "The sky is the floor of an ocean" or [livejournal.com profile] shweta_narayan's "Apsara" or Robert Pinsky's "Last Robot Song," all of which are beautiful, with truth in them, and much easier on the ear than me sneezing.

Cheers and groans go up where appropriate. The mountain of work ahead of me has shrunk to a hill, and, if luck and energy levels hold, that hill may yet decrease again and clear my way for writing and submitting and doing all those things I meant to do this year, when the month wasn't near three quarters over.

I do hope you feel better soon.
