Lingering Like a Lost Poem

What do I have to do, be another Don Trump and have to insult you to pieces. Well, here goes. I know that the intelligence level is much lower in the South and you have to adapt your newspaper to fit the minds and brains of your clientele. You, at one time, used to publish my poems but don't anymore for what reason I do not know why. Employees on your newspaper might not be very bright as well and cannot comprehend or understand my poetry. People have been asking me why you no longer publish my poems. But being that your staff is not that bright, it is difficult for them to mentally perceive and understand my poems and poetry sad to say. Now that I have pulled a Don Trumpism on you lets see if go ahead and publish my poem. When you do. be sure to send me an email showing me that you did. I just let both of your subscriptions expire. You should have sent me an email indicating your next copy was available to read. Not only that, you could email all of us in the whole entire county a free copy of your newspaper. In that way, all of your county businesses would know that everyone in the entire county was receiving their advertisements. So how about being a nice Brunswickian and publish my poems and start Poetry Club and have a poetry news column in your newspaper. Maybe the libraries could also start the same thing. Jim Horn PS. I just sent this to local newspapers and libraries. Results should prove to be quite interesting.
