Max, Will you email me who ___________ __________ was?
Discretion is not the better part of gossip. I'd also like to know which mag it was and who the editor was.
Thanks for another smiling poem from maxchevious you-! -Sue Simar

I am in the process of collecting as many rejection slips as possible from poetry magazines. I suppose I might hope for the day when someone will learn that one of my scribblings have been accepted rather than their's causing them to ask, 'who the hell is he?

Dear Max,
All respect for those prestigious publications that we are supposed to be in awe of is totally lost on me. I have been on this site for 6 weeks now and lo and behold, am witness to far superior material than one shall ever set eyes on in the majority of CanLit publications. Beginning to believe that it is better not to be connected to their 'high standards of sophistication.'

Hello Max, this made me think of 'starving poets', those two words just kept running through my mind as I read through your very intriguing poems. Perhaps we won't be read/discovered until after we are dead....Take care, and I look forward to reading more of your poetry :) Kim

Nicely written and I do agree, even a writer like myself have such a hard time to get my story publish, a constant battle with others who most of the time are not such good storytellers. I enjoyed!

Sometimes I wonder about our creative community. I think some 'artists' are lauded because a publisher is putting spin so they don't have to admit the embarrassing truth that they were wrong about talent. This site is refreshing for that reason, the space is up for grabs by those that want to fill it.

Love it! The smack in the face is when they say they're publishing so and so instead of you. Even worse is when they say 'this is very good, but not good enough for us'. Well done, Max: a true poet's lament.

in the end
the very end
too many words clutter the mind
until
all day with the other
not how much but how deep
a delightful poem
