R E J E C T I O N

My poems are written
only to be bitten
by draculen editors
who are literary predators,
tearing apart from the heart 
of poems carefully drafted 
and hours crafted 
and sent by mail 
only to fail 
at the desk of jaws 
who with large paws,
piles them in a heap,
calling rejection cheap,
not caring who will weep.
