Muse Marathon
My writing.
It helps me get thru it.
Whatever the it may be.
So my Muse begins her marathon.
The words start to pour
and the rhymes begin to blend.
Many times I pull over while driving
to jot down a thought,
knowing that in a minute
it will scramble and be gone.
Poem after poem.
Day after day.
Then she gets so tired.
Takes a break.
Her disappearance, my writer’s block.
When words seem to hide from me
in a bottomless well,
unreachable.
But I know my Muse.
She’s just prepping
for the next run.
About this poem
I’m currently going thru a marathon.
