Mind swirling
And the blank page
Is staring
Mind in a cage

Inspiration is fleeting
The words just will not flow
Then a chance meeting
Causes the Muse to show

She descends into your life
Pulling at your heart, your soul
Taunting and teasing your mind
Suddenly the world turns bright
Can see victory, your goal
Leaving the real world behind

As she sets your mind ablaze
The story spills forth like a river
Then she leaves you in a daze
Your great temptress idea giver

You can surely bet
She will return one day soon
So do not forget
Thank her for her lovely boon
