The Short Story Library rejected this short poem on August 18th, although the editor thinks I “paint a great picture with your poetry[,] however[,] the style I don’t think would be a good fit for what we are publishing for poetry.”  Okay, rather awkwardly stated, but you get the gist.  While there are no style rules stated anywhere on their site, I wasn’t devastated because, as I had indicated earlier, this poem was actually requested by a printed publication and I immediately sent it off that very same day to “People’s Art and Literature to Go” of San Francisco.  I’ll let you know when it goes public.
