The Ultimate Poem

Hidden in the deepest recesses of my cabbage patch mind is the ultimate poem the ones faeries cry over, my muse assures me with her teasing ways. giving me bits of it I wake up suddenly, Knowing the ending line, realizing it was THE ultimate poem, the one I have been wanting Glimpse this poem in her entirety quickly and silently seconds before waking up Yet I retain not a whit of it. Not even the ending line…

I am always trying to re-write this; it is my perpetual theme. Ha!

Try to catch me...I've not been able to retain those moments between dreams...only can remember the feeling...not the words... MUSE probably have their own rules of copywrite...

Yes, my muse is enormously bossy, and still she lets me down.

I am reading it and nodding as if I did not even write it. Weird.
