My Muse right now does Refuse

As close to humor as I can get tonight...

My Muse right now does Refuse…


 


Oh yes, you have been here too,


Where the muse does allow no clue,


I can’t find my writing abilities,


Where the hell did I put them?


Maybe I am for this overdue…


 


I can still write something, this for example,


Maybe this poem will be just so much a sample,


Of my lack of ability to write, normally so ample…


 


Boring though my life may be,


I can still find something to put down on paper,


Tonight my mind seems to be taking a walk,


Shortly though I may just give up and balk,


I will be back eventually with all due and usual clues,


But for now, this night, again I have lost my muse…

Ed, Very a-musing write. Even Muses need a vacation. Mine goes to Vegas twice a year.

Missing muses can usually be found in the company of new ones that are just waiting to be explored :-)

Ah, nevermind... your muse is probably eyeballing my muse over there in a field... like a coupla Bo Peep's sheep, they'll come home, dragging their "tales" behind them... yeah? think so? like I said, Nevermind! hehe... I'm still numb from the elections and still seeing waaaaay too many nasty, name-calling, bitter pieces around here. Jaysus... and that's from the ones who WON! Sigh... I'm outta here... katy xox.

I suffer from this from time to time and now want to get started on a new novel but can't make my mind up. So I find inspiration in different things. A phone call or chance meeting is my muses.
