Can you believe this piece of shit was #1? (Free verse) by horus8

I was once on the best list, but then I proved you all fucking wrong by writing this. Think about that. Now I'm cool again, on poemranker. I go door to door & sell Avon A solicitor, A smiling wholesale artist. Sometimes, late at night, I think of my poor naked poems being lashed and mounted. Forced into #1. That's when Faith saves the day. She rides in on a miniature painted pony with a disco jingle background. Wearing a Victoria's secret get up, Just to shove a ten right up my ass. Somehow convinced I possibly could give a shit. Thank god, she's not blind anymore, etc. Tomorrow, I was thinking about selling my soul to the devil in return for knowing the true identity of all pronouns, always. That, and a monogrammed hand towel collection in peach, and burnt umber. That says, "Broccoli, Poetry, Dysentary, Murder" But some how shortened and more poignant Like sex with your weak hand and a toothbrush that part times as your keyboard-cleaner/hip hop-medallion. Why? Why? Why! Was I so hard on shit poets? Because... Chewbacca needed Han Solo to translate. I think that pretty much sums up what I think about voting Lobbyists, and your idea of Democracy. So take a good look at yourself, The next time you get the urge To form words and judge with that gash in your face substituting for a mouth.

I do believe NFG (if you read what they are about) is: 1) not an Internet magazine and 2) a collaborative editorial group. So not only were you turned down by Ms Peabody, but also numerous others that had a look at your work. And by your reaction it lead or leads me to believe that this is the first experience you have ad with submitting literary work for acceptance and had the unfortunate response of a rejection. Worse yet, possibly a one line rejection. As far as the other babble, really, I do not have the time for it. I do not recall what or what I have not said to you, but I am sure it was quite rude, unpleasant and only in the context of what we were discussing at the time. Think what you want about my work and my character. It is quite pleasing. But do not bring Z into this, she is quite a dedicated writer and works hard at establishing herself and building a literary magazine. GW is about in the same league as you when it comes to writing, and I cannot vouch for you friend Ms Peabody. But, do not let one rejection letter dismay you into long infantile rants. Just keep plugging away and maybe one day you to will have a bit of the success that others have worked hard to attain. Until then, good luck to you and your family.
