Alright, so I've made it my summer project to send a couple poems out to several different magazines/contests and see how many rejections I can wrack up in a three-month period. This is what I have so far:
looking heavenward with gravity
This one's definitely going out somewhere. The contest I'm looking at has a postmark deadline of June 1st, so this is going to be sent off pretty soon.

For Walt, with Reverent Indifference
I'm not sure if this one is going to go out or not. I'd have to edit out Walt's lines that I "borrowed", and it would probably help if I could sent it to a contest that was specifically Whitman themed, but... we'll see.

Untitled-As-Of-Yet
I also have an untitled ekphrastic poem in the works -- that may or may not get posted here before the deadline. (It's becoming more and more apparent that deadlines are not friendly things for me. -_-")
If anyone wants to help with crits or with general submission advice, that'd be great, but otherwise I'll just keep you posted throughout the summer as to how things are going.
Wish me luck!
