the ass-end of space

*because i can't write a damn thing

upon an altar
of gleaming white
i lay my offerings

pouring words
in libation to
this virgin deity

but gods and muses
will not be appeased
this day and i

am humbled




..and then one day you find..ten years have got behind you..no one told you when to run..you missed the starting gun..

I so know what you mean here...
The stupid blank page just expects so much from us all..!
Well done... I think the muse should certainly be satisfied

Always, Alyssa
