Notes About The Poem

Missing Inspiration

This white paper screams at me
And I yell back
The more I sit here staring at it
The worse it gets
Where did my muse go to today
Down the drain?
I think I need some inspiration
For this is nothing
Not a poem, not a story, just a
pathetic lamentation
See you tomorrow ;)

John Herlihy January 30, 2017 at 11:56 PM Cries and lamentations will not the Muse bring; only inspiration will make the Muse sing. Longing watches the night slip away; patience is beautiful by day. Yes, I will wait for tomorrow; hopefully it will relieve your sorrow. JH Darren White January 31, 2017 at 12:35 AM Hah! I love this poetic response, thank you John. Yes, today is a new day, and I will step into it with an open mind :)

Charmaine Chircop January 30, 2017 at 12:45 PM Oh if your muse is acting like a witch..Mine is definitely being a bit*h :)..I can understand that feeling..Sometimes.. I just want to spank my muse hard on her b*m...and make her do her job..lol..Your poem made me smile..Im sure it will be back very soon. Darren White January 30, 2017 at 12:47 PM Thank you Charmaine, don't you just hate when this happens? Tim made a funny poem about it :D

Daniel Turner January 30, 2017 at 10:07 AM Listen to Phoebe Snow's "Inspired Insanity" that ought to do it:) Darren White January 30, 2017 at 10:09 AM So gonna check that out after dinner :) Thanks.

Tim Smith January 30, 2017 at 9:12 AM It's probably hiding under the bed....Put on some good music... Preferably something sad... Always gets me going when I get filled with emotion. Darren White January 30, 2017 at 9:28 AM I think I might just do that.... First a noisy household with two toddlers during dinner and then sad music, see what will happen. Thanks :)
