Well the poems I submitted to the journal got rejected. Not unexpected, but still disappointing. I was told my stuff was too archaic and that the rhymes dominated the poems rather than the content. I can't say they don't have a point, but *shrugs*

I was told to read more contemporary stuff. I had read one of the people they listed and I like his stuff fine enough, but it's way too transient for me. I'd like a poem to have more of an effect than be forgotten after I've turned the page. Maybe I'm just not getting everything his poems have to offer.
