Flowing Ink

Again I lift my pen to write, My Muse is near to me tonight. With shadings of strange metaphors To conquer little wordling wars, Vast the forest, Poet Trees Deep the roots, Sublimities Where Muses water roots with ink For thirsty poet's Souls to drink In mottled shades of muted light Abandoned pen begins to write The Ink is flowing And none may quell Deliverance From Muse-less hell

Dear Bj, i love this and it resonates strongly with me, sometimes when i feel too overwhelmed i go through that museless hell, and when ink flows it is a relief. I love your opening lines and also i can feel the lines “ With shadings of strange metaphors” wordling war” Where Muses water roots with ink “ fave this is. Pleasure reading your work. Sending you light
