POEM EXCERPT
In despair, I hung
my head,
Lost in life's chaotic sound
Until in the loneliness of the night.
Suddenly I was found.
-The Quest for Self by Patrick McVey

Blood and Thunder
is an arts journal published by the University of Oklahoma College of
Medicine.
In 2001, a group
of first year medical students created Blood and Thunder in response to an
elective course entitled Literature in Medicine. Since then, the annual
publication has grown to include poetry, short stories, visual art, and
other works from all over the world. The publication is completely managed
by the medical student members of the editorial board.
An example of the
College of Medicine’s interest in the
humanities, the journal continues to be a creative outlet for the
expression of thoughts and emotions associated with the healthcare
experience.
It is
the goal and purpose of Blood and Thunder to enhance the education of
healthcare professionals through the exploration of art and to serve the
community as a means for artistic expression.
