Bemildred*

[truepenny]

My poem, "Night Train: Heading West," is going to be in The Year's Best Fantasy and Horror XIX.

My bemildredment is small and personal and has to do with the fact that I'm not a poet and I know I'm not a poet. This is the only poem I've written in ages and ages (practically since the Second Punic War), and I doubt--but of course cannot discount the possibility completely--I'll ever write another one.

It is not a complaining bemildredment, mind you. Nor is it a wtf are they thinking? bemildredment. Just ... not what I expected somehow. Life is odd.

*iirc the name of the third bat in Pogo--either that or my post-con-crud is giving me delusions.

Congratulations! Obviously, someone has a different view of your poetry-writing ability. :-)
