SAME WEEK
Same week
as I was accepted
and published
internationally
alongside
Sara Paretsky
Alice Walker
Lemony Snicket
Ursula K. Le Guin,
Barbara Kingsolver
and others
I was rejected
by the august
editors of the local
allotments mag
Merton MAGA!
on the grounds that
'it seems to be a list
rather than a poem'
I then thought
'funny old world'
