I want to say something profound
Right Now....at this very moment
I have this urge that insists
I throw a battleaxe to the heart
that elusive target....yes i can see the blade
spinning end over end through the air
seemingly with no intention of ever slowing down
end over end over end goes my mind
to that thunk in the metrical circle............
but most days the edge refuses to stick,
hold-fast in the lyrical wooden eye
falling ingloriously to the hungry earth
I put the pen back in the drawer...............
stringing together desire and creativity
is like weaving colorful patterned strips of cloth
into a piece of art
suitable for the wall on a hanging-day
a tapestry that doesn't offend the eyes
a heavy textile woven dream
presented there for all to gaze upon
as they walk through their one-of-a-kind lives
Today.....is not that kind of day
maybe it's because i'm a stubborn old ass...................
a man insisting his quatrains needn't rhyme
maybe,.....it's because Calliope can't be bothered

Re: when the muse is busy
saw. Is it fair to say perhaps that poets, artists in general, by emoting; feeling; from all sides of the emotional spectrum - live?

Re: when the muse is busy
I think that's fair wylde that the desire to communicate, shed light, create beauty, shock, requires one to get outside simply going through the motions
