"We are delighted to publish the 2016 Fall/Winter edition of the Medical Literary Messenger. In this edition, we explore medicine and the healing arts through heavy doses of poetry, a shift from prior publications. We hope that you find the content moving and meaningful. Thank you to our diverse contributors. And, as always, Dear Reader, thank you for making the Medical Literary Messenger a relevant voice in both medicine and the humanities. Gonzalo Bearman, MD, MPH | Editor in Chief"--p. 2.
