First Publication

A stormy scandalous novel written
more than a few cataglottism moments
romance between an empress and a eunuch
a subtle plot with a twisted ending
one month anniversary of its submission
publisher’s letter is begging to be opened
jittery, as nervous as a confronted womanizer
dosage of adrenaline coursing through veins
onomatopoeia like squeal escaping your lips
you plunge right in and face the outcome
hopes festoon in the contents of a torn envelope
phonetic juxtapose letters optimistic and promising
justifying your raison d’etre after all
did you hallucinate what you inferred
or discombobulate the message some way
heretic fear melting to stark euphoria
as welcome as any Valentine surprise
you pop the cork from the champagne bottle
and toast your first successful publication
