40+ submissions. 1 acceptance. A year later, it’s in a national publication. The Great American Poetry Show. I hold the hard-backed book built on such hope now, in my hands. Would fate be so funny as to send it to me now, nearly 6 months to the day of my last post? Surely not. Even my muse rattles his cage with laughter.
Wake up, wake up wherever you are. Remember dreaming, remember believing? Remember applying such things to your reality? Pick up the wand to your respective mediums and wave it through the unrelenting air. It will give way, it will part for madness. The onslaught of madness. That wry smile on every face screaming, “Stay mad! Stay relevant!”
Thank you to Larry Z., Ai, M3, Mat D. and of course, as always, to the Orphans. xxoo
