Introduction | I love poetry and discourse and gallows humor. I like to say that reading voraciously has been the only constant in my life. I am a fierce advocate for my daughter who has a severe seizure disorder of unknown origin, as well as for all special needs children. This is a place where poetry, politics, parenting, and disability intersect. Every now and then I curse and might offend you with my leftist politics. No apologies. Stop reading. If you have trouble leaving a comment, I'm sorry! You can always email me at elsophie AT gmail DOT com |
