Hey:

Best of luck with your health issues.

I also have macular problems, and have a real sense of what you are going through there.

I like the new look of the blog!

BTW, if you want to be listed on that “Michigan Poets” blog, all you have to do is apply. Your life-long links to Michigan should do the trick.

I hope you can continue, Jilly, and I am sorry you are still unwell. Thanks for these links. The Welsh are really getting on my tits lately, especially the right-wing crazies there who think they can control poetry. I guess the loony Christian fringe is everywhere. Sigh.

Crucial? Urgent?

Well, I hope they pull their collective thumbs out and get you tested pronto.

Mondo “Kill Bill” look. Must be (literally) a new perspective. You give eyepatches a new cachet, my friend.

I like this ‘Miro-esque’ design. Hope that you are seeing better now Jilly. The blog is looking good too.

Jilly, not easy days - I’ve been in that boat myself - but your patch is just fabulous in the way of these things, & thanks for posting the picture up. Back when I thought I was going to end up with one, I even accosted a guy in a pub one time because he was wearing the most beautiful soft black leather eyepatch - but he said someone had made it for him. I’ve been thinking about you.

I’m about to email you separately about business.

I much appreciate your mention of my recent appointment as Poet Laureate of Wisconsin. The whole thing is only gradually sinking in– but it must have really happened, I guess, or you wouldn’t have said so on this blog. Many thanks!

Okay, two things caught my eye (oops) and caused me to comment:
1. The picture
2. Comments about lack of female poets

I doubt very seriously if you’ve heard anything about a new book entitled “Raising Black Flags: Original Poetry By and About Pirates.” If you want more info, let me know and I’ll provide it. It’s an anthology of poems all centered around piracy or life at sea and the majority of the poets are female. I don’t think any of them have cool eyepatches like yours though . . .

Kind of hot, actually.
