A Visit to My Muse (the key to writing poetry) #556



A Visit to My Muse

Twas some fifteen minutes past
when I two ticks short
a quarter
heard the phone begin to ring
at which point I grew
much shorter
then I entered through my ear
at the point this dude was
writing
and he said to come on in
what he had was so
exciting
so I sat down on a chair
where I made myself feel
homey
cause you know
when phones do ring
you just can't be looking
phony
and I said to him with glee
what's this thing that you've got
written
and he said it was a poem
and I'd better get
to gettin'
so I took it from him quickly
though my eyes were still
a seein'
that the last line didn't rhyme
and I asked why…

He gave no reason.
