Every muse owns an artist
Se is needy, obsessive, relentless
An angel
with a whip
************
The muse is a tease
She flirts
She pouts
She gets what she wants
****************************
I know you're here
The air is pregnant with your presence
Later when silence reigns
You come out
Freed by my touch
But angry
To have been kept waiting
*****************************
Spider woman
She strikes
Hollows me out
Pours herself through me
and
Escapes across the border
*****************************
Satisfied
She tires of me
Doing her nails near-by
**************************
I am singular in my love
Never cheated
But my muse has played hide and seek
through the lives
of many lovers
****************
