Dr. Rubin Naiman, whose workshops I attended and wrote about briefly in my journal, is working in cooperation with the Narcolepsy Network to produce a book of poetry to be publish this year. Poems will be selected by a committee of professional poets and the the profits will be donated to the Narcolepsy Network.
Please submit poetry as well as any questions or comments to :poetry@drnaiman.com. "Even if you have never written poetry before, please consider exploring poetry as an outlet to your feelings and experiences living with narcolepsy" Maybe we should have a topic where we can just post our poetry for each other as well.

Ok, if I was going to ask you to do it guessed I should do it myself. I just sent off this little cataplexy haiku to Dr. Naiman.
Cataplexy Metaphor Made Manifest. Simile Suggested Esoteric Emoting That's it. Nothing spectacular, but I contributed.

thanks for mentioning it M.
put this up before but perhaps the subject was wrong cos it kinda got ignored. I think it's cool but then I'm biased and totally freaked out by corporate america - the obamanation of desolation It's called 'How to tell for sure you're in REM' Clearly you're coaxing rainbows with a fly and wish that clattering train would go by A silver line makes blotches on your tie Taking captive every thought, you're nefesh, leaping through surface light, gleaming. Trout's eyeball glares at you, then blinks It's the guard; train clicks 'Refresh' He thinks it's your heart or a bad high and would like to see your ticket please You wipe at your chin, dab at the tie No really, I'm quite fine, you explain Welcome to today Whatever that is Uh oh, there's that fish again got lots more where that came from but I'll spare you nice whitewashed americans and regale rather the requestor of N verse. Hmmm Nverse hmmmm hmmmm Pwn make interesting poems when they come off the dreaded meds. Do yourselves a favour.
