Missing Her Muse

Inspired By a Painting By Andre Kohn


MISSING HER MUSE


Rejection in scarlet tones.... her dance partner has flown
her lover.. her friend.. her saving grace there's no room for air in this place
at the dance bar she now sobs as her muse has left her without a song
no rhythm no rhyme.. steps out of time.... she is left to face her own demise
as she wipes her tears through sadness and woe the dancer must always
go on with the show.
