Poetry Rejections

Standard

2022

Dear —,

Thank you for your submission. I'm sorry I could not take a poem from you on this occasion. Thousands of unsolicited poems were submitted and I had space to select just 30. This means I had to reject a great many very good poems.

Sincerely,

Patrick Cotter
