Neon Awakening

it's not unlike 
the fluorescent light in my kitchen
 which is faulty
 it flickers on and off 

that's what it's like just now to write again 

my muse... like Cinderella waking
eyelids fluttering

taking you up hands and embrace
we begin dancing awkwardly together
like candlelight and darkness

 I am the incandescence and you
 the ink
