The Strapping of the Wench In hiding place I found my muse made of pewter air breathed her in like cool and dark a chocolate from the Frigidaire My muse WAS there but she’s not fair now she’s stuck in scenery of heart between the tender nape of neck and the garden afraid to start She is part of the transformation in movement out the door the sound she makes cries free me and then hold me evermore Twirl she says in softest voice to me with a evil wink then lifts her pretty skirt off floor and dances in my ink I brush her off my shoulder in her next whim then I find she is flapping arms and darting tongue in rhythm from behind I’m tired of chasing after her can’t she see I need a break my words are screaming in my head and what comes out now just seems fake She jokes a lot when I am down thinking she’ll get me laughing but if I could catch that wicked wench she would get a real good strapping |

Martie, it must have worked! Cause this is superbly done and I could see that little devilette sitting there sticking her tongue out... I recently quoted myself as saying that female muses were the worst ones.... Mayhaps I was right? |

Sweet! Ain't self-knowledge a wonderful thing? And ain't it odd that I go back to see what I wrote and see that it wrote part of itself twice --- Well, repetition adds emphasis, like I said somewhere else.... ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸ ¸¸ºº> ~~~(¸¸ER¸¸ºº> ______________Ratleader______________ [This message has been edited by Ratleader (09-28-2003 02:01 PM).] |

Suggestion: instead of that strapping, try just hugging her for a good long while. That seems to work for me. ~~J [This message has been edited by James_A_Fraser (09-28-2003 03:21 PM).] |

 (giggles in delight)  Now now now, spanking and punishment isn't the way to calming this wench, it is all in sensitivity and comfort! (giggles) I just love this, sweet friend, God Bless You, sweet friend, your poetry is always so colorful and playful, yay, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Martie, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton I don't need no proof when it comes to God and truth |

Nietzsche wrote in Thus Spake Zarathustra a scene wherein the Witch was counseling Zarathustra on dealing with women. He wrote: "The Witch said, "Zarathustra, when you go to woman, bring your whip." I always wondered if old Nietzsche (confused as he seemed to be) was really talking about a poetic Muse. |

Now that dear lady is a real "Lilac Moment" which I will just tuck away for a rainy day to enjoy again and again. |

I thought for sure I'd replied to this one. *chuckling* I'm beginning to wonder about you, lady...are you sure you are not Cpat's muse? I understand she is fond of leather and such as well...  Thanks for the smile this morning. |

Martie... to see the laugh in this one, tells me.. well done and I understand your muse far better than I should..lol.. Ser... you got my muse all wrong... she isn't into leather or pain... and Martie has too much class to be my muse. She is a lady after all... |
