    Do you have a "facing it" poem?

Cannon to right of them! Cannon to left of them! They're fucked! bugles

Sorry lil I meant to have great things to contribute, I thought I might click on your name and see what you've been up to, but it turns out I don't have very much to say on the subject of facing one's problems. It seems to me that if there is a way to face them you act accordingly, and if there is not, you don't. The rest is just hand-wringing and bugles.

EDIT: Bronwen is such a wonderful name, also Branwen. I believe there is such a character in L'Engle? I wonder if I can get away with naming a future daughter that. It's a very woods witchy name, to me, so she might come to resent the implications. Branwen was royalty or something, but I like Bronwen better.
