Editor’s Dilemma

Sarah Brown

Far from final fingers trace,

To tell the tale that they’ll embrace.

Even enough eyes enhance meaning,

Meandering mandate messy leaning.

Listen like lone lover left wanting,

Will we wait when writing’s flaunting?

Fail fair fiction, five further for me,

Mind manners, mere mention reality.
