Default "Anorexic" in CHEST

My blank verse poem, "Anorexic" appears in the current issue of CHEST: The Journal of the American College of Chest Physicians. Here's a PDF version of the poem: http://www.chestjournal.org/content/....full.pdf+html

Thanks to all who helped me workshop it here.

Jim

I love to see poets thinking outside the literary box, audience-wise, and this one truly does the ancient poetic work of speaking for a community. Nice work and nice placement, Jim.

Congratulations, Jim. Strong piece and an interesting placement for it. The journal did a good job with it -- it looked nice on the page.

Congrats, Jim! It does look great, and it must be nice to have your medical colleagues read and appreciate your poetry.
