Randomly Inspires

 Randomly Inspires


(An acrostic ottova rima)


Randomly the muse it inspires me

Anywhere or time striking like lightning 

Notebook channels raw electricity

Down it flows my God it is frightening 

Once it starts it sparks burning like a tree

My hand puppet writes automatically

Like a burnt out bulb that suddenly dies

Yellow ring of light fading from my eyes


Inspiration flash rumbling nowhere near

No matter how hard i try to listen

Softly falling rain is all i hear

Perhaps I can't write if there's no friction

I must go hunting don my mining gear

Rubble I've sifted to see the glisten

Emerald words set in a ring of gold

Sapphire eyes sparkle ruby lips wax bold
