At midnight, I get out of bed to write- I find my insight by glowing candlelight, " MUSE!" I invite, in a voice so polite; "help me expedite words of dynamite." But despite hours- still in a wordless plight! Sky bright, and there is nothing to recite. ______________________ January 5, 2017 Poetry/Monorhyme/Night Plight Copyright Protected, ID 17-863-499-0 All Rights Reserved. Written under Pseudonym.

LOL, love this witty write - although, I know that your muse positively shouts in your ear 24/7

I am so enjoying reading the entries for this contest and this one right here is one of the best I have read. Absolutely wonderful Broken Wings. This felt very smooth and good to read.
