Haiku Dis

Thought for sure they would
love my most-recent haiku;
it was rejected.  


[One of the hard parts of writing is the frequent rejections, both from publishers, and sometimes the (possibly imagined) polite but unenthusiastic praise at open mikes. I'm sure everyone experiences it.]

I went to an open mike - it was like being at school and never went again. I would categorise this poem as a senryu not a haiku:-) hugs Jan xx
