The poet in me Can disappear I’m a combo short Without his ear A pretender’s left And here comes panic Without my Muse I get quite frantic And chaos crowds The remaining source Where I’m a knight Without a horse A wordsmith here Unqualified To pick my brain Just pushed aside Robotic words Will cross my page The day grows dark On life’s old stage Longfellow looks down Laughter booming At the tripe I write So non consuming My ego falls My pride goes limp And one hung low Is no Chinese **** So I send prayers From my antenna To reach my Muse My lost breadwinner How could one think Him but a myth I lost my flow I lost my pith Oh here he comes With lines exact I'm me again My Muse is back
