Welcome to the Rat’s Ass Review, yet another online poetry journal. I’ll be presenting my personal view of poetry (for details, see our guidelines), looking for new and established poets whose work I enjoy. Look around, read, and feel free to leave comments.

They are listed at the bottom of the page, but it’s worth mentioning again. The site was designed and built by Joanne Merriam, and the rats were created by John Pierard. I thank them both for their work, and can put you in touch if you have paying jobs for them.
The name attracted me, since I’ve got my bub (pet rat) Willie in front of me right now…I like honesty (in a Sargasso sea of layered lies)…so, thanks for that (since you are a writer - why “insulting” as one of the 3 rejection letters? Aren’t we writers/poets up against enough without turning on one another? Doesn’t “Regular” doing the insulting? I mean, to have NOTHING
said about work you’ve slaved over without recognition - isn’t THAT “insult” enough?
Please pass along to your artist how wonderful we 3 rat-fanciers here love her renditions of scribe-rat - it will be going on the wall, so it can be enoyed constantly. (Willie Spuzzums was less impressed: another depiction of us as nasty lunatics with a chip!) Knowing pet rats (bubs - new word: check URBAN DICTIONARY) - many do have “chips” and a few are “lunatics” and I have met at least one who was “nasty” - but, I digress!
BEST OF KARMA, etc. to YOU on this endeavor! Wheeee…….!

Thrilled to see ratsass in print in addition to routinely falling out of my mouth. Wished I still smoked and drank — your guidelines triggered all the old great appetites. Here here!
