She is a Fickle Mistress
O Muse!
Where have thou flown?
you leave me alone upon this night
of nights
When I seek into the shadows
and explore widening crevices
but alas only darkness and dust
come away
Sweet-Bitter Muse
where do you steal away
like a fairy with mischief on your mind
Your laughter tinkles
and I try to snatch a kiss from your grace
only to have you skip away with a pinch
and slap in the face
What am I to do
when my Muse wants to play
hide in go seek
By why must she always hide
and I left ever to seek?
Tis a cruel cruel game
that we cannot find escape
she is a fickle mistress
but her charms are not be resisted
So we are left to wait
upon her deciding fate
when she may choose once more to wake
flaunting for a while
before she slips away
Love-hate
bound up in one
how unfaithful she is
but she is the one you
always forgive.
