I am a serious writer.
See my name upon the screen?
Note the count, replies have I,
oh tell me what they mean...

Note the count of syllable,
how precise the meter...
I am writer, serious,
I am the muse receiver.

I have the sharpened feather quill,
I have the ear of angels whisper...
and I taste dust, of self-disgust--
in truth?  Myself--I miss her.

Got a little lost at the end...(I am a bit dense at times)... did you lose yourself?
Lovely by the way

Thank you Prometheus--god I love your name--was just a bit of sarcastic writer's disgust...please take it with a grain of salt...just a bit of poetic self-flagellation...and thank you again for reading!

hum... (maybe i'm out in left field) from this poem i glean that writing is not as fun as it use to be. again, just a guess from my interpretation. forget rhyme and meter or whatever and just write from the heart...

"To live is to love; To truly LOVE is to live!" ~kg~
