Don't piss off the muse...

Don't piss off the muse...

A Poem by Frieda P

Madness rules the pen,
   freedom of speech
         not even a concept
what the muse says goes,
  just give in to the inky blows,
     dip that quill in bloody tears
  color it with apricot custard dawning's
    ravage erotica's blissful yearnings
       crack a rib on that funny bone
if you fight the urges,
   you'll end up on the chopping block
    writer's imagination arrested
don't piss off the muse, 
        
'tis  a woefully dreaded plight indeed...

A mass of words is the writers' Mind Puppeteer . without IT we're empty, without it we're limp as a leaf in pain. You express what needs to be said, advice well given should be well used. You're the one, missus.

Tis a deadly blight indeed...indeed! You won't believe how many times I pissed off the muse, and sat skulking and trying to write something. The muse is forgiving though and shall always come back even though she's pissed, because she knows that without her, mankind is doomed! A very wondrous read, very well penned!

Ha, doomed for sure...thanks so much Gleb!
ah yes, piss anybody or anything else off, but not the muse...i agree....we have no control over what we write anyhow...

she rules..

the cracked rib part made me wince a bit..thinking of my mom at 91 and how she cracked hers right before i got to carolina this Xmas....but she is recovering.

Loved this … some forget that poetry is sacred. Not to worry … the book I just thumped was an anthology of Shakespeare;)

Ah Shakespeare, he was a deep kinda fella, wonder what his muse was like, thanks so much Pryde. ;-)
Madness rules the pen - to this I say Amen!
crack a rib on that funny bone - if that's what she wants, keep light the tone!
don't piss off the muse - In that battle of wits, you surely will lose!

Yeah, I like this one, Frieda. :)

Wrath, I love that word, thanks love.
Im with Jack on this one...the muse in us is the balanced one however I've been the pissed off poet before and although it brings about relief its not the poet i wish to be.

Wonderful write Frieda. I don't ever think I've seen a pissed off rite from you yet. All your work has great depth, meaning and character.

Cheers

I'm playing it safe, and being accommodating to both, ha...thanks Troy!
The music went disturbingly well with the poem which in itself was well penned. Once you have your muse with you, dont do anything that will scare it away or piss it off lol
Much enjoyed, thank you for sharing.
