my muse went meowsy

dusk arising

 

 

Absent without an excuse
i had a chat with my muse

 

she said 
"you really dont try very hard"
" you never sent me a valentines card?"
"till you do we're living apart"
"walk a mile in my shoes you old fart"

 

who else gets such stick from their muse?

    Can't avoid this one.

    The end of line words .- are they special? some connection between them or something......?

    A fun write dusk - hopefully lightens the moods here for a little while. Many thanks.

      LOL nowt special they just rhmye like nursery rhymes i learned as a small boy.
      The first nursery rhyme I ever heard has stuck with me:-

      Ned, Ned the donkeys dead
      he died last night
      with a pain in his head

        "All I am saying is give" it a go, dusk. Simple amusement desperately needed in these troubled times...

        You can lift the whole genre - many nursery rhymes are a bit grim.

        Always surprises me where the inspiration for a write comes from - must have a muse somewhere but I've never given it much thought.

          I wouldn't know a muse if it came up and bit me M.E. But I've seen it mentioned so many times in MPS i thought I'd adopt one.... now look at her. Out of control and bitching.

            How does that saying go...you can send a horse to boil an egg but he cant ride a scrambler... so there!

              Old farts,
              like me,
              divorced by,
              my muse,
              she’s content,
              to live apart.

              light and much enjoyed

                I was making it all up.... which muse amuses a musician.... i ran out of ammunition.

                I never had a muse.

                Muses are inclined to disappear if not given our whole attention and yours seems a control freak as well - - give her the elbow Dusk and she at first may sulk and then come to her senses and use you again - at least that has been my experience with mine goes missing. Still smiling at your witty Muse-chat

              • Rocky Lagou

                hehe! Nice one! I felt this as my muses are almost everyone! I'm inspired by the world! Well done!
