Hello everyone at AP! I just wanted to change my bio a bit so that fellow poets do not think me snobby or stand-offish when I do not reply or comment in kind. Many of you know that I was in a car accident a few years back, and while I did have surgery, it seems (according to doctors) as if I have a huge problem with my muscles telling my brain they are in pain, which is causing nerve damage, which is causing muscle spasms. I know, I had to do the math myself. It's basically a big, screwed up circle. A most supreme catch 22, if I do say so myself. Then, there's a gait problem. It seems that since the surgery, I can not walk correctly. So I fall. A lot. I just got over a concussion and a broken tailbone (ouch). Please don't think I feel sorry for myself; I wish the event had never happened in the first place. However, my husband and I try to joke about it as best we can. He says that I must have a bullseye on my rear and my car; he just may be right! But what I really wanted to say is that I am sorry that my appearances here have so many gaps between them. I do not want to come off as rude or pathetic, but I want everyone to know that I am filled to the brim with appointments of all time and that I sleep very little at night due to pain, so I guess I'm just not thinking clearly and I seem to have lost (hopefully temporary) the ability to put pen to paper. If I have left a thank-you out to one who has taken the time to read and comment on my poetry and you have not heard back from me- I am so sorry. It is certainly not purposely. I really,really hope I'll be up and running again in a short time. For all my fellow poets- keep writing! Even if I don't have the strength to comment, I am inspired by your words.
Blessed Be,
Rachele

Gypsy Via Orleans on August 28Haven't seen you in a while and just wanted to pop in to say, "hey". I'm sorry about your accident and the pain you're going through. I can relate because I have fibromyalgia. Probably didn't spell that right but, it sounds like what you are dealing with. Hang in there and I'll do a whole lot of praying for you.

MichaelLeeSmyth : Depth of Reality on March 26Hey There,
Just wanted to say the depth contained within your work is it's greatest strength. Too many of the works are so very two dimensional, a lot of words with no depth.
Not yours, they make me feel, a rare thing.
