An unexpected surprise!  My poem Dreams and Death was published in Poesy magazine.  I received a copy of the journal over the weekend.  It is a lovely glossy book.  I feel honored.  For me, the process of submittals is very challenging.  So much time and effort is involved.  Receiving a copy of the journal in which one’s work is published, and knowing that your piece(s) can now reach a wider audience, makes it worth it.  Ultimately, the knowledge that your work is possibly touching someone else is one of the biggest driving forces to seeking publication.
