Notes About The Poem

Happy New Year's Eve poets! 

Drunken Muse Dilemma

My muse is drunk this New Year’s Eve 
Not caring about my desire to write
Slurring words ideas ruining peach poetry
As lit as fireworks in an onyx night sky

His cigar smells and as he yellow yells
Thinking it a funny whispered joke
Jack Frost a blue friend will sit a spell
Jack Daniel flowing down his throat

Eyes so red glassy seem to blur 
His vision of the world this night
Ideals still fly high as a blue bird
Despite fluctuating laughs and cries

I offer him coffee strong and black
Same as his views when not drunk
He drops the cup it now has a crack
New Year’s Eve isn’t going to be fun
