The Fallen Muse

It was obvious, his muse fell His mind was a muddled mess Killed or wounded, he couldn't tell The emptiness caused him much stress In the interim, he searches For a topic that seems just right An Epiphany that lurches To light his dark poetic night! Worn out by this torturing test Unable to escape this trap He resorts to what he doe's best He eats a bit and takes a nap!
