To New Beginnings And ****** Rings

A moment cuffs you in the face

like Newton's overstated apple,

and the evening dissolves

into sharp, steady resolve...

You think about the extra drink you should have drunk,

the song you should have sung

and the man whose touch y so missed...

 

The Muse had disappeared.

**** Muse.

 

Every time you try to find news you want to *****

not just a little, but expel the very core of emptiness out of you,

and you picked a fine time to stop swearing

because there is a man whose feel you have so **** missed...

 

The stars continue to twinkle across the Northern Sky,  

oblivious to the bouncing of our big Blue Ball,

un-answering dreamful wishes;

though, there are other stars lying closer to your heart,

a fresh start and the barbells below...  

And you realize

life is found in the letting go...

 

And the Muse reappears, smiles an aching, wondrous, Hello.
