anthology update: a haiku

shuffled into play
dealt, considered, they end up
on the discard pile

Yes, sad but true, none of my three submissions for the anthology made the short list. I had a little hope when I arrived for the meeting tonight, because they were all in the top half of the ranking, but with only around 30 out of 233 going to make it in, it was always a long shot.

Blah blah, there's always next year blah, blah.
