Although we've never met before you share my fear.
Never passed on the street yet have worn the same soles.
We don't go to the same church and yet we have prayed the same prayer.
We are brothers and sisters whose parents never met.
Our families have no affiliation yet our rituals are the same.
We have not served in the same army but fight the same battle.
We don't have the same scars but we suffer the same pain.
It is not being understood that we understand so well.
We can feel the passing and arrival of our seasons in ways that would terrify most.
We dance to the beat of the same drummer, he is a beast.
We share the same hope..
To rest.
We are Clusterheads.
Happy Easter!
with warm regards,
Tony

It is up to YOU to educate yourself and then help your doctor plan your treatment. If you just sit down in front of your doctor and say "make me better" you are setting yourself up for a great deal of pain.

That really sews it up for me--spent years dreading the onset of spring and fall.
Good words, Tony.

Ah! The foreigners put on such airs
Wearing the tangerine suits
And their harlequin eyes.
The pain they inspire
Draws in harmonica melodies
And the feathers of birds
Which flame up at their touch.
It all comes to light in the sheer
Debonair.

I showed this to my wife after I posted back to you. She turned around and left the room. I don't think she wanted me to see her crying over a bunch of clusterheads. I think that says it all, that it touched her so deeply.
