So asssailedA Poem by RustySo assailed by the muse she took to his whip Her bones soaked steeping in the hot bath The tyrant beconed her to pen Write more and more
Lasciviously he devoured her past and spit it on the sheet before her He held her head when she tried to turn away He fed the flesh from her This journey had its way
The path gave no quarter No clear marker to lead the way The only way to know it Was to see from which way she came
He laid her down to slumber Just to wake her as the dreams returned She felt as if on his spicket Laughing he turned and turned
Stuffing cotton to abate the hearing But it wouldn't save the lass No the muse would have his way with her From begining to the last
So assailed she wearily turned Heard the pen, its wicked laugh The book was writing her Time for a warm bath © 2012 RustyReviews
