poetry bonanza day!

[swan_tower]

Today has just brought a bunch of poetry news! I mean, one part of it was a form rejection for a packet of poems, but to take the sting out of that, another place bought two from me in one go, "Our Rewards" and "Hallucination". I knew that could happen with poetry (since most markets want you to send them more than one poem at a time), but it's the first time I've unlocked that achievement!

And on top of that, I have a poem out today! Eye to the Telescope has done a plant-themed issue, to which I contributed a poem about the World Tree, "Axis Mundi". You can read the whole issue online there!

You might be interested in a mathematical tidbit: "Axis Mundi" is based on a syllable-counting form called the fib (because it follows the Fibonacci sequence). I inverted it, mirrored it, and got something shaped vaguely like a tree!
