Perpetual Ruminations

A Musing

I mentioned a short time ago that I need to get back to writing but have been struggling for inspiration. In times past, I could look at various prompts and Halo, my muse, would provide some suggestions. If, while writing, I got stuck or mired down, Halo would again step up with some inspiration. But, she has been letting me down for quite some time now. Hell, most of the time I don't even know where she is.

Growing tired of her shenanigans, I told her, "Halo, you have till Thanksgiving to get back to work."

"And if I don't?" She sneered.

"If you don't, you're done and I'll find a new muse."

Well, Thanksgiving arrived but still nothing from Halo. In fact, she left me a note saying she was tired of musing and quit. She wrote that she was going to find a circus to join.

Where does that leave me? The same place I've been for some time now; nothing has changed except that Halo will be in a circus with her clowning around instead of here.

One thing that has changed is I need to find a new muse to provide me inspiration, motivation, and enlightenment; yes I am a musing...
