    quick note
    I wrote Mike Resnick. Okay, yeah, you don't know who he is. Web it; the most prolific SF writer to date, and quite inventive; he's got a capacity for constructing a consciousness and following through on it. The deep thoughts are hidden but there. And he replied! which is the bright note thus far in the year. Can't be in the hospital when you're living month-to-month. Interesting times, that. I am working on a thirty-day posting thing, have to have at least half written before I start. The pain from my back (the cartilage complications of Ehlers-Danlos) is sometimes overwhelming; I really don't feel the pain in my hips and shoulders much any more. Anyway, it does knock me down. I've got four day/entries written thus far. Truth is the current one and as expected the trickiest (because I'm trying to keep each entry to about 600 words or less).

    i think you've given me
    too much, today. all
    these named and stayed interfaces
    at best it seems dimmed
    and blurred visions, whole fields
    of values like poppies
    and statistical trees and all that stuff

    and you were bright and cheerful
    though (as ever when new confronts old)
    the motto was “change or die”.

    you with that glitter that's not even
    drug-induced, beyond the legal ones--
    thankfully, evidently.
    it's not that i don't understand it,
    you see. after all, i forced the change.

    it was just that i didn't expect
    --i really didn't expect--
    to have to learn their
    asinine names for it.
