Justification

JUSTIFICATION Oh, what a distressing frustrating situation, I’ve suddenly lost all my poetic imagination, Nothing tickles me pink, no stimulation, I want to create a poem of deep inspiration, Which will meet everyone’s expectation, But my thoughts are edging towards nullification, I want to scream out loud, a slow dilapidation, I’m reaching an uncomfortable exasperation, My muse, has succumbed to misinformation, Intimidation, and deviant calculation, Goodness gracious, Heard word she wants my poetic elimination. Someone is knocking at my door, to my jubilation, There stands a muse with intense yuppification, She is well known for helping those Experiencing mortification, Such a refreshing sight, she must give, One month’s notification, Looking forward to her presence, Such a welcome application, She will help me with my recuperation. But it seems that a rhyme has come about unwittingly, Delivering both articulation and jollification, My previous muse jumped from poet to poet, Everyone realized, fickle her motivation, But my new muse muse and I Popped a bottle of champagne in celebration.

Jennifer, your rhymes are simply marvelous and exude a sense of joyous celebration. I hope you indulged in some expensive champagne to mark the occasion. Your creative spark is back, bringing with it eloquent expressions and delightful inspiration. I thoroughly enjoyed your revival of sparkling wit. Your use of language is simply delightful. Wishing you nothing but the best as you emerge from a period of frustration. With warm regards and best wishes.

You wrote these lines sans a muse so you've no need for a new one. Drink that champagne all by yourself then write a poem to post~ 'yuppification' ;-)
