Inspiration

Flickering sparks of creativity Fluidly flowing phantoms, not tethered by time or logic Unintelligible shadows twisting about as formless vapor Teasing me with the occasional glimpse of meaning and clarity Whispering vague ideas and subtle musings Swirling memories and lucid yet imaginative thoughts They are born and die in brief fits of inspiration Poetically imprecise as a roll of the dice Wondrous wisps weaving words like a widows woeful webs Encrypted thoughts and entangled plots Whether they be angels or demons They are a poets inspiration
