ms muse a thief

A Poem by Shirlena
"

A sample of new book.

"

 

hush in this deep



interrupting while welcomed


burglarizing unconsciousness


subtracting golden antique minuet



where will you advance with pen today… musette


at dusk tread light as this could be the night


wakening from divided slumber…file among notes


do another soliloquy


or take your meanings down upon a pad


becoming affixed at your creativity  I take dictation


open curtains to expose the moon


so inspiration competes no blindness


not scaring off chance of each rumination


but encourage pages to breathe


indulge in comfort so you will stay



so what do you say…inspiration



where will the pen tip with me this dusk


together you and I sedate the truth


tickle anger til it squeals mercy


release wild repressions making us insane


creating worthy of us… what do you suggest


we paint while the world


knowing so small…. hibernates



speak sweet with undertone that no one mumbles with agitation


armed of broomsticks because they are fools


wedged between brick tenement



ready to shake the soul?



as outsiders numb of our code


nobody heard how we conspire



ms muse...stealing nights by wing


mellifluent


thief at my side

Just wow... So much has changed since I last visited here, but the uniqueness of your pen is not one of them. Missing your work and incredible mind. I do hope you have been writing!

The muse is a fickle and mischievous one indeed...I carry around paper and a pen 99 percent of the time, yet she always seems to come around during that one percent when I have one or neither of them...I shudder to think of all the poems I have written, that I didn't write, if that makes sense...as always, it's hard for me to cite specific bits for your poems are such well-oiled machines with every line interlocking like a completed jigsaw puzzle without the outlines of the individual pieces, if THAT makes sense haha...Frieda has summed it up perfectly (as she always does), this is a poet's poem...you speak for all of us with sublime precision...now if anger would only stop tickling me...I wait patiently for an opening when I can turn the tables on it...maybe someday...the usual brilliance my friend, you're hands-down one of my favourite poets here.

Wow, this blew me away. It is the first thing I have read of yours and I can tell I will be coming back for more. The way you piece together your words is incredibly artistic, and you clearly speak from your heart and soul. Bravo, this was absolutely gorgeous.
