And Pins Are on the House
Turn down my subs, all you people who edit.
My voodoo doll company lends me unlimited credit.
Concerning Rewrite Requests
“I have written what I have written.”
A policy plain to see:
if it’s good enough for Pontius,
it’s good enough for me.
On the Anniversary of My Submission
Dear Editor, I’d like to know what law
of science says that in the time it takes
the Earth to make a circuit of the Sun,
an impulse in your brain cannot traverse
a neural synapse just a micron wide
to trigger a decision, yes or no.
