My Muse

My Muse! My muse is not an imaginary being made up by ancient civilizations saying that inspiration for everything comes from supernatural beings different ones assigned to different things instead it comes from inside of my brain which derives from my creativity my imagination my fantastical thoughts my intellect my stupidity my rage my anger my indecisiveness my two year old tantrum throwing my acting before thinking rationally my truly raw and naked side of me my selfishness my introvertedness my extrovertedness my imbalances my believes my disbelieves my wants my desires my goals my dreams my problems my solutions my uncontrollables my unknowable my travels my mental disorders my passions my hatreds my biases my nonsenses my nuances my lovers my ex-lovers my interests my disinterests my attacks my heart aches my heart breaks my successes my failures my anything and everything inspires me to write whatever comes my way whenever I make it come to pass by writing it into existence through my poetry and my poetic-proses!

My muse wants full credit, considering us separate, but I know better and you do also. Welcome to Poetry Soup! I hope to read more.

Excellently penned Eric, my muse is fickle has just returned from a break, I never know what she will come up with but I do use the contests to inspire me. Having read back over some of my poem titles for a current contest I do worry about my muse lol:-) hugs Jan xx
