Poe's Banished Muse

Poe's Banished Muse

A Poem by Whiskurz

Why must they scream at the top of their voices?
Can't they see the quill in my hand?
I've used them all, I'm running out of choices
Why is it they don't understand?
My muse is mad, I've sent her away
A maniacal being indeed
She steals all my words, I've nothing to say
Her heart filled with envy and greed
I reach for the spirits to calm my quill
My hand, unsteady at best
The voices get louder, they're haunting me still
They scream 'til my sins are confessed
They're mocking me for the sake of my muse
A curse, no doubt, she coerced
She bid all the words to confuse and abuse
'Til her banishment is surely reversed
Insanity's the ink that flows through her veins
'Til it reaches the tip of my quill
As the spirits entice, my resolve now wanes
And I fear I must bend to her will

Wow! This poem is great. It is very well written and flows beautifully.
Insanity is the ink that flows through her veins
'till it reaches the tip of my quill
As the spirits entice, my resolve now wanes
I fear I must bed to her will

Those were my favourite lines, so eloquent!
Keep writing!
