My Mistress

I have a mistress
And her name is Pen
She draws the feelings
From deep down within

She uses her blood 
To bring them to scribe
So people can see
What's hidden inside

No matter the moment
No matter the place
No matter the name
Nor even the face

She has no discern
For anyone here
She commands that I write
And I must adhere

My mind is the motor
That helps generate
Electrical feelings
My words eminate

I sit and I ponder
O'er nature and space
A hideous image
Or beautiful face

Nothing is sacred
Or hidden from light
When ever I sit
And Pen starts to write
