An invocation of a new muse.
'The Poetess'


I don't really know you

The virtuosa magnificent

You, the poetess

Whose work is sparse yet sentient.


Simple yet magnetic

In its exposition and revelation

Suggests you, dear poetess,

To possess the very key to my salvation.


Something about you has snagged me

Like a thorn does a wandering finger

So at this candlelit desk am I left

To write and in creativity linger


Until you leave me like every other love I've had.
