"Take my weight from the ground / falling deep in the sky / slipping in the unknonwn"

Since all knowledge is available on the Internet: Any ideas what to do, publishingwise, with two poems 650 and 730 lines long, sequels to another long poem? All of three are sex farces set in Greekmythland, which means they can swing fantasy or mainstream depending on how you squint. I've exhausted my marketing ingenuity with these.

By way of thanks, an obligatory linkpost:

• There's nothing like reading a string of competent but pedestrian children's verse before and after it to bring out how good Frost's "Acquainted with the Night" is.
  
  
• "You know what's awesome? Muppets being sociopathic in the name of selling coffee."
  
  
• Classic movie fight scenes made better with lightsabers. The best is the silent-era Mask of Zorro, but Yojimbo has a nice bit of meta going for it. (via)
  
  
• Engineers have created the roundest objects in the world as part of an attempt to solve the standard kilogram problem. (via)
  
  
• As outsiders see U.S.: Luxury ghost-towns created by housing slump, and they do indeed look freaky. (via)
  
  
• Needless to say, I think the iPhone is the perfect platform for an abacus app ...
  
  
• ... and that a subwoofer is the perfect platform for non-Newtonian fluids.
