Rhythm and Jazziness That Resonates Familiar

Following the trail of stardust I float to Jupiter
Looking for answers
But alas they are elusive and unkind
I do not understand
or fathom rudeness

Upon my return my eyes flutter in relief
REM sleep takes me deeper and deeper
Poetry can be written another time
Tonight there is nothing
No inspiration

Don’t give up an ancestral voice whispers
She has answers
And questions I had never thought to ask
We create together, this cosmic visitor and I
There is a rhythm and a jazziness that resonates familiar

Upon awakening all is lost

Ah, it is very hard for me to believe there is ever a time when Caren does not have any "inspiration." Now, me, I worry about "respiration," but seldom am without some kind of inspiration...albeit not always for poetry! (chuckling)
