The trouble with muses



No matter how much you associate with her,
no matter how much you depend on her
and love her to the point of adoration,
you can not have sex with her.
She is for worship, inspiration
and idealization only,
or she will not work.
And even if you try to trouble her
with personal relationships
and sexual advances, love ambitions
and possession of herself,
she will just slip away
and gracefully continue as a muse
for metaphysical and spiritual approach
and only work and business use.
Let's be content with that,
as long as we may go on having her.

a muse is a good thing to have.
we are able then to understand true beauty without all that complicated personal stuff.
of course muses eventually lose their interest.
to be replaced quite readily.
well observed and interesting.
