I won’t write, I tell my muse. I refuse.
She laughs at my won'ts, my cant's and my do’s.
Most know Trixie; she brazenly dictates to me.
She is puling my strings, never letting me be.
I’m serious, I say. She laughs at my plight.
She forces me to stay awake most of the night.
Magnificent poems climb into my head.
Trixie will tell me when I can go to bed.
Delighta did not know whose instructions to take.
Hummingbird in her left ear or monarch in her right?
She picked up a book of faerie spells and ignored them away.
A snarly-mouthed, cross-eyed, pessimist with an attitude toward mean.
Ann Marie disregards opinions that are not her own.
The town has ignored her for so long, few people remember her name.
She speaks in a pirate’s brogue when she speaks, which is not often.
Mostly to a newcomer who is brave enough to say “hello” to her.
Her relatives parted ways long ago, even though she still lives here.
She is satisfied with their arrangement.
So are the other six thousand and twenty-two residents.
Oh I’m sorry, I didn’t hear what you said,
What was it you had to say?
Instead of hearing a rainbow of thoughts,
I heard a sort of a grey,
And I sort of deliberately wilfully chose,
To not move an inch, to remain,
When you began to shout louder than loud,
What was probably my name,
You see, over the fence and across the road,
Walking all over the path,
Is the girl from just down the block,
The one with the beautiful a##e,
And I swear that she is full on ripe,
I swear that she’s on heat,
That’s why my attention is set to her,
The b***h across the street.
Shores Ignores and Snores
While I was watching some ocean shores,
Here in America Trump everyone ignores;
Put out of my mind;
Never want to find,
And you should hear him when he snores.

Now she ignores me.
I know she does it everyday
I am aware. I know what lies beneath
Promises and believes now seems lost
I can understand her
You will go. You are irritated.
You are hurt and I am lost
Time is money
I will not stop you
Let the time roll
Someday everything might go right again
I miss you.
