DEAR THYROID^TM

We chose the word, impervious because of it’s definition, “Not allowing something to pass through; not penetrable.”  With thyroid cancer and thyroid diseases, we are penetrated to the point of being overtaken by illness. In addition, with so many tests and issues we face with friends and perhaps loved ones, some of us feel as if we want to create an impenetrable shield.

We would love your interpretation, be it literal or not, in acrostic poetry of the word IMPERVIOUS. Please send your literary works to submissions@dearthyroid.org. Let your veins do the walking, meaning go as deep and as dark as you need to. When we ‘tap a vein’, we bleed through our fingertips, and onto the page. We express ourselves honestly.

We look forward to your most excellent works.
