Poetry Soup 101

First make your base using all the pages of your poetry submissions. Simmer 20 years or so or until your first acceptance. Add the vowels one at a time (and maybe Y but prob'ly not). Use A B C to make it thinner; X and Z to make it thicker. Adjectives are to your taste; adverbs may make a waste. Serve it up with old-fashioned pen and ink, or avant-garde with electric links. ...and for desert a simple pie up in the sky where poems die, filled with the editors and 'zines that just say no while you wait for yes!
