Poems
Oct 2014
The Muse Died
The muse died
I put a stake through her heart
Put her in the ground
She will no longer
**** away my sleep
Trade my time for trinkets of rhyme
I left her
In an unmarked grave
So soon to be forgotten
She will no longer
Rise at first moon
To haunt my memories
Like a simple twist of fate
She looked astonished
The first blow upon the stake
I dust off my hands
And lay my shovel down
I'm going home
I will lay down
And go back to sleep
all within my ease
But before I do
I'll throw another poem
Upon the towering stack
