Thanet Blighters

*Down at Thanet Writers
Who the hell's in charge
A lefty with an ego?
self Important large?
They published the first that
I wrote and sent to them
I Thought this is good
So sent them one again
A little person opened it
And felt a wee bit sick
The content must have triggered him
And made him cry real quick
Far from getting published
I got an email back
From someone thinking they were god
But as a two bit hack
Your views are all skew-whiff
And they don't match with our own
Your poem was quite childish
Moan moan moan more moan
They now ask me to verify
Then submit I can
But Ignore me when I've done this
I think that was the plan
How very very British
With someone at the top
If that one doesn't like you
Then you my friend they'll stop
They are an Ink-spot though
In this reality
No-one seems to know them here
They just seem sad to me
*My email to their editorial team.
The poem they didn't like was "Alfliction Rebellion", in my poems Oct 2019.
The poem they published was "Home" in my poems May 2019.
