My Muse Is Gone

Oh, Mork.

****

Genius-Madness

Oh-so-Sad Sadness.

Anger-Danger

Rage and Gladness

I am so sorry

The flip-side of your

Brilliantly Cre8tiv

Coin landed

Down.

 

What is beyond Genius?

That fine razor's edge,

Where they both dance and

Flirt on the demarcation

Line, spinning, control,

Out of, in, and out.

Who knew what it was

Like to be you?

 

There are those who knew

You, and loved you, and

Appreciated you. I'm creative

Like you like slugs are to

***** whales. Life's

Images can hit your eyes

So hard they leave dents.

People's words can sound

Like world condem-

Nation.

Tho I never met you,

You felt comfortable enough

To be a virtual-friend.

Spirit kindred.

Hero, if I am allowed

To use the correct

Context.

 

You were the Mt. Everest

Of Comedy, Improv, Stand-

Up and Delivery. Not impossible

To reach, but the effort, the extra

Ordinary effort to slow your

Einstein brain capacity so that

The rest of us could try to catch

A glimpse of the train

That was your life zooming

By.

 

I'm sorry your pain and misery

And anguish and the hole

You were in were finally

To massive to bear.

You will be missed,

Dearly,

Dear Mr. Robin Williams.
