I Am Always Wrong

The poems I submit don’t get published. 

My writing is just a tad too experimental 

for the experimental magazines  

and not even close to fitting in  

with the Mainstream magazines.

It’s a bit of a curse,

And then of course you’ve got your cronyism.

I fail. Over and over. 

I fall.

There is no proper niche for my writings. 

I’m the worst at what I do the best 

and the only thing I can draw is thorns.
