the muse disabused

 the muse disabused 


each morning

shaking the pockets of night

the half-notes fall out

the music of the muse

mouths the words

mimes the memes

from which great poems emerge 

sleep the cheat the crib

of many a famous poet

a sigh falls back to sleep

it was there

i saw it

i think

aye aye 

for tomorrow’s amusement
