Name Your Muse
The Cosmos
Looking up into the stars
On a clear moonless night
I ponder all the mysteries
Among those twinkling lights
And I'm in inspired
By the revelation
That there is more
That we don't know
Then we do know
And I become filled
With inspiration
Considering the discovers
That will be made
By the next generation
The heavens in illumination
Serves as the muse
For my poetic creation

Tidal Muse
You show me what the world really is
Indeed I buy your views
You show me how restless life can be
How turbulent and confused
People can be in this existence
Yet even so there can be peace
If we strive on persistent
Things can flow at ease
You flaunt your might and power
Always jubilant and brave
Oh how many have you devoured
With your mighty waves?
I wonder how you instill peace in me
When you're never at peace
Your waves roll on endlessly
And never will they cease
Your vastness opens up my scope
Nothing cages me in
Your eyes is now my periscope
Nothing is left unseen
And I can see beyond the superficial
With the thoughts you induce
What you inspire is magical
Oh my tidal muse
You show me what the world really is
Indeed I buy your views
You show me how restless life can be
How turbulent and confused
People can be in this existence
Yet even so there can be peace
If we strive on persistent
Things can flow at ease
You flaunt your might and power
Always jubilant and brave
Oh how many have you devoured
With your mighty waves?
I wonder how you instill peace in me
When you're never at peace
Your waves roll on endlessly
And never will they cease
Your vastness opens up my scope
Nothing cages me in
Your eyes is now my periscope
Nothing is left unseen
And I can see beyond the superficial
With the thoughts you induce
What you inspire is magical
Oh my tidal muse
Anonymous
Unwelcome Spoils
Angelic though she seems
Her poison kiss is fatal
Her beauty is a dream
And scent more sweet than maple
At times her arms embrace
At others, armed with hate
Her vision of the future
Shows I arrive too late
What makes her this enigma
A brilliant but cold
Why she works hard for her figure
She knows she'll lose when old
A touch before my arrival
One not so permitted
Has led her down a spiral
Of crimes not yet committed
Her elegance is fragile
A touch could bring the break
She loves the air of love
But every touch is rape
We fight for close and feeling
But distance overcomes
We are never too revealing
But never come undone
Her bra strap on display
The world takes her for granted
But whenever we lay
We never get it started
So I grow colder still
Awaiting confirmation
To touch her brings a chill
So I make imitation
I long to take her gently
To bring her to the edge
But she fears for her gentry
Scorn when both in bed
How beautiful she is
How patient I once was
How can we both exist like this
When love for lust was lost
Her poison kiss is fatal
Her beauty is a dream
And scent more sweet than maple
At times her arms embrace
At others, armed with hate
Her vision of the future
Shows I arrive too late
What makes her this enigma
A brilliant but cold
Why she works hard for her figure
She knows she'll lose when old
A touch before my arrival
One not so permitted
Has led her down a spiral
Of crimes not yet committed
Her elegance is fragile
A touch could bring the break
She loves the air of love
But every touch is rape
We fight for close and feeling
But distance overcomes
We are never too revealing
But never come undone
Her bra strap on display
The world takes her for granted
But whenever we lay
We never get it started
So I grow colder still
Awaiting confirmation
To touch her brings a chill
So I make imitation
I long to take her gently
To bring her to the edge
But she fears for her gentry
Scorn when both in bed
How beautiful she is
How patient I once was
How can we both exist like this
When love for lust was lost

Muse as a Person
Time stood still when we are face to face.
It is not so much what you look like, but who
You are as a person. I want to continue to trace
Across your chest so I remember it is always you
Who inspires me. You are my muse and my one
True reality. You always feel like the starkness
When all I want is nothing more than to run
Far away from the shadows and the darkness.
You always lift me up and you motivate me
To be a better person. You push me hard
To follow my dreams and aspirations. You see
That I would do the same for you. As scarred
As we might be, we are invincible. The dark
Corners of my mind and the doubts that are
Floating around turn into a beautiful lark,
Flying. Darling, their raw beauty does not mar
Or become ugly like weeds. You somehow
Have that power to turn the wordsmith
Part of me into a songstress and plough
Through the bad days. Your love is no myth.

*Muse* Supper Massive Black Hole
My pocket full of rainbows
my Draken warrior.
my magic sock
fitting every odd-ball
that's missing a mate
in my DNA selective
cellular structure.
My calibrated configurations,
My Mad Scientist
Of mind and matter
he is my Tesla
my Hawking
and so much more.
Bogart to his Hepburn,
Rogers to my Astaire
My ALWAYS right
even when I'm wrong
my confidant
My come hither stare.
My Ludovico Einaudi
My Paso Doble Prince
My Shepherd and my ugly
He excites me
