Begging in the breeze
By Stephanie Sideways
A bath of burning words
Drowning in scorched stanza
Metal head of heat
Hot hell of shouting hemisphere
How it haunts me
the crackle of ideas
Captured, catching fire
Disintegrating
Then dust.
Begging in the breeze
From the embers of emptiness
A Phoenix takes form
With tamed talons
She turns the taps
And the words like water flow
The air is clear once more
To receive the flight of my mysterious muse

Write it all out and then write it all away in the resolution. Then attack from another angle and fly off the handle - your muse knows what to do so let it flow lady, cheers!
