Written 1-6-25 for for Edward Ibehs contest "cacoethes" Pick A Title This or That Volume 48

My muse is an excuse for an insatiable desire To empty my heart and set your heart on fire I’m not much of a writer if you didn’t know Unless life inspired or desired by sensual soul It’s as if red fever has stricken my body Words circle blue brain and join to party I hate it yet love it the denim dilemma Writing like lightening often don’t remember Time before prime of it striking my mind As a kind of escape from or to better time Some days I choose other days I don’t To be my own muse write my own song Oh cacoethes you created a unique me I panic without you, you set me free
