Carlene Bauer
“I am in no mood to fulminate on paper--I wish the two of us were in a room together talking of what matters most, the air thick with affinity. In January a man crawls into a cave of hopelessness; he hallucinates sympathies catching fire. Letters are glaciers, null frigates, trapping us where we are in the moment, unable to carry us on toward truth.”
Carlene Bauer, Frances and Bernard

“You stand for what is right-
for the patient and the staff.
Pressures of work may down you,
maybe bent but not broken.”
Mujel Hasan, No Return Address: A collection of poems
