It doesn’t matter the time,
If the muse wants to rhyme,
Forget sleep, outta bed we climb,
As then you are on your muse’ dime…
Are we a slave to our thoughts,
Struggling to share while they are caught,
To construct or constrict, we go both directions,
Write we must while still we have the connection…
The hardest time is when I do drive,
Cause to be safe I do strive,
When the muse therein does me cue,
To the side of the road I am then forced,
To write most safely, this idea by the police is strongly endorsed…

Your muse will thank you for it. -gene.
SUGGESTION: I did this 25 years ago - but haven't done it since - had a small mini-cassette pocket-sized recorder - is especially great while driving. Whenever a thought springs forth, just press one button - RECORD - CAPTURE IT! Later, can be rewound, playback, and then typed.
I recorded an entire book like this on about 25 double-sided 45 minute tapes - then just handed each one to a secretary, who typed it for me.
Another thing that is possible, is this mixture of old and new technology - if you have a Printer, like mine, that does Printing, Copying, and Faxing - you can take any old printed page, SCAN it, then upload to your computer, name and save it on a word=processing software, like WORD - and then EDIT - make corrections, copy & paste, move paragraphs around, move or delete totally unrelated thoughts that were captured, like footnotes, or side-thoughts, or even TO-DO LISTS, or little recorded reminders, shopping lists - WHATEVER!
CHEAP - OLD-FASHIONED - BLENDED with HIGH-TECH -but still Functional - As an example, I had many old printed pages of old poems, stories - that I had no desire to
RE-TYPE - SCAN BABY - SCAN!
P.S. - Lose the Apostrophe in title - should be simply verb - Cues.
HAPPY WRITING - NO EXCUSES FOR MUSE CUES! HAPPY NEW YEAR TOO!

Good thing for us, your Muse being active: and good for you, because it shows you're alive. :) Well done, love the graphics.
(((HUGS))) and love, Karla.
