| Inspiration Goes Missing In Action |
| by M. Blake |
| It’ll always be abrupt the comedown,
Jarring him from the divine moments. What he imagined Sediment in the gutters of commerce, Swept away by the efficient. His special deliveries never arrive. Bone-rattling, and this feeling of being cast out, Of landing wherever. Nowhere. Collapsed puppet Waiting for a kindly Gepetto To rekindle his spirits with strong purple wine. He’ll take a hand whenever he can get it. An understanding smile Sustains like food sometimes When the day is too plain for magic |
