An ode to that mystical figure with whom all writer’s have a love/hate relationship.

In my mind’s eye I see him;

Lazing on some distant shore,

Warm breezes caressing his cinnamon skin

As my calls he chooses to ignore.

 

In disgust I ball up the paper,

And throw it into the trash.

I send out another plea for his help,

As my ideas continue to crash.

 

My muse is a heartless soul.

Only showing up when he deems fit.

As you can see by this little ode to him,

He was nowhere around when I wrote it.

    Awe, thanks guys. I have been so busy getting my book ready for print. I have so little time for anything else. It is done, though, and at the printers so it will be coming out very soon.

    I will have much more time for writing and commenting here. I’ve missed everyone, too.
