Submission Guidelines
Demanding editor for poetry
invites submission of your verse to me.
My first command's to memorize the rules
by which I'll entertain submitting fools:
You'll send me your submissions on your knees;
no more than seven in a packet, please,
and you WILL put an SAE inside!
(The stamps are mine, whatever I decide.)
On one point I'm particularly firm:
no simultaneous submissions, worm!
You'll humbly wait on my decision four
or five or six or seven months or more,
until I send, as stinging as a whip,
that cruelly polite rejection slip.
If stern humiliation's your desire,
I'll give you all that anyone could require.
