Muse

Certain people think

that when Muse visits an artist,

It's like a glamorous ball

Or an intimate party.

You are enthralled to see each other

Only see each other at one's best.

 

Muse is more like

A dripping faucet

A howling dog

A chirping cricket

A running toilet

A flashing light

A beeping battery in a smoke detector

 

 

 It bothers you for attention

When all you desire is rest!

I Like Your Muse

Food for thought here. Muses are overly glamorized - I know from personal encounters. Mine drank heavily and I kicked him out when he started sniffing glue instead of ink. Good write - so true! :D.
