“A Tear Drops” Is Rejected

This short poem, submitted to the Short Story Library, was also rejected on the 17th of August.  According to the editor, he “felt it was missing depth and I was a little confused at what exactly was happening within each stanza. The poem should tell a story and I felt that this poem was trying to paint a picture[,] but it was not really clear. I suggest adding more depth and descriptions around it to help clarify the sequences.”  If you would like to read this poem, click here.  Keep in mind that I did not submit the picture, which may (or may not) have made a difference in clearing up his “confusion.”
