Divine Inspiration by ~Zeeblee:iconZeeblee:



Sit,
and wait,
for the divine inspiration
from the mystic muse
who transposes her beauty onto paper
through mundane and mortal hands.
Without her the slate is blank,
filled only with a mockery of truth.
Unless of course the devil speaks
with wispy whispers that tantalize the nerves
and empower our pens with a seductive fury.
But neither muse nor devil may be called on,
at the whims of directionless ink.

Here's a piece I wrote last night. Despite my posting it, it feels unfinished to me. Maybe later I'll figure out what to do with it.

Anyway, I hope the muses and devils stay at your sides.

Firstly, this is my fave poem of yours yet. Secondly, do Muses always have to be female?

the Greek Muses are female.

but the lower case muse can be male.

According to tradition they are female. But that doesn't mean a person's personal muse(s) is female.

This is your favorite poem of mine yet?
