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

My poem "Berakhah" (for Peter Burson) has been accepted by 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 seajules's "The sky is the floor of an ocean" or 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.

Thank you and appreciated.

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.

Yay.

I do hope you feel better soon.

I hope your life is soon cleared—and not in any way that involves unemployment—of work.
