another rejection letter. the poems attached to which are promptly being sent off again. I figure that if a poem gets rejected say, three times, it's probably not worth continuing to send it. There are enough magazines around that I can probably only bother each of them twice over the course of this year, and still get most of the poems out there.

of course I may simply be no good at this. my regular job, I am good at. but this flirtation may not be forgiveable. I may find myself kicked out of the marriage bed if I keep at this affair too long. eventually, they'll want me to make a decision about going back to work...
