		<description>I'm new to this monkey business so don't know quite how to go about posting things, or what the etiquette is, so I thought I'd just start with links to my website and blog, where you can sample publications and follow my ongoing journey with poetry and manic-depression, the latter seen through the eye of a physician/poet.  I've also linked my magazine, The Melic Review, presently on hiatus but with eight years of archives</description>

of the ocean, thin and white 
against the high violet,
