In keeping with AW's new Poetic mission, this is your thread to wax poetic about submissions and rejections!

I will begin:

The hope for my tale
soars like an angel, until
you shoot me down cold.

I am NOT a poet. However:


I submit.
I wait.
I hope.
... too late.

This submission thing is a difficult bag.
I really don't mean to be a drag,
but when they say no
it can be quite a blow,
yanno?

But sometimes they say yes,
and that's the best.

Poetry prim can be rather grim;
some tear-jerkers may make a mint,
but poetry crude that lightens the mood,
will wind up more often in print.
