I've been away from the soup for a while and I'm so glad to be back. It's like having one big poetic family, and I miss everyone when I have to be away. Thank you to all those who make it possible for us to come together and support one another in our work. Thank you to all those who have bared with me when I've been in and out. Thank you to all those who have shared your words through poetry. I love each and every one of you!
