I'd read them if I were rewarded in some way. If not by the poem itself, then with red wine or free trips to places without troubles.

I often have salesmen in my office, pushing one product or another. Most of them offer little gifts (such as a coffee mug, a tshirt, tickets to a ball game... trivial things.) In our office, we call such perks "spiff."

Acceptance of spiff is against our company policy, but most managers accept gifts.

Seems like spiff couldn't hurt a poet's chances, either. I'm sending a tshirt along with my next submission. Maybe even some wine.

However, I imagine they'd have more need of Tylenol.

That should be a submission requirement: please include 3 to 5 poems, a SASE for return notification, and two Tylenol extra-strength.
