JUST POSTING BECAUSE I WANT TO TINKER SOME MORE WITH NEW BLOGGER'S "LABELS"

Well, I did it again.

A publication -- this time, an anthology -- sent me an acceptance. And I replied, GREAT! ... but then followed up with a sheepish request that they email back to me a copy of the poem because I don't know to what poem they're referring.

Dang -- I've flown a ways from my first couple of years as a poet when I actually mapped out on Lotus 1-2-3 spreadsheets my poems, where they were sent, what's been accepted, rejected or has status pending, etc.

I was so earnest about poetry back then. Nowadays, Missy WinePoetics mostly sips it. And this Poet never spits out.
