Love the fact you didn't change the word 'wart' into something that didn't sound so warty. Hope that's the last you've heard of it. And a great solution to the conundrum, it's very refreshing to hear someone say they don't need the money.

And I was born called Wharton. Not nice. People fill in the blank.

I’m sorry about your friend Warty. I know you spent a lot of time together. Perhaps you’ll meet again somewhere in the great beyond.

Love this solution for paid posts. Thanks for considering everyone involved.

Put silicon tape on the wart scar each night and it will resolve well.

Hi!

I was in the phase of discovering feminist literature and read around a two tons of it.

I read poetry collections and I adored every poem you wrote. I especially resonated with Against Still Life. I still re-read it as it tends to evoke in myself a sort of healing.

Thanks for that.

I read The Handmaid’s Tale

after reading all the poetry I wanted. I don’t re-read it though. I was fascinated and horrified and felt sufficiently disturbed.

Thank you for that, too.
