the process

21 of 30


I jot a thought & save it
hoping to complete it later
sometimes it works
others...not so much
& I'm left with a buncha scraps of this & that
no idea where I was originally heading
so I set them aside
again...for eventual retrieval

I think my muse has a prickly personality
obstinate to a fault
refusing my attempts to channel our thinking
she clearly has other ideas
{apparently mine are too boring}
I'd appreciate it if she'd share her own musings
{pun intended...}
give me a little direction
...a hint...anything
but we continually go through this routine
she covers her ears to my pathetic pleas
such a spoiled brat

still...I have all these tidbits
waiting to be finished
like a puzzle...
scattered all over my mind
I just need to assemble the pieces
might take me a minute
but I'll get there...
with or without the little stinker's assistance
