Poem -
Bemused to Death
when your muse goes walkabout
In those last three days before
winter kicked in ..
We exchanged a grand total
of fifty-seven words
and eighteen sideways glances ..
But hey, whose counting,
they were nothing but numbers
back in the day ..
And a forced smile whenever
it could be squeezed in,
would burn like perma-frost ..
Boy, did they hurt
and like hell, they sure did ..
I am now a very poor griever
and canāt wait for
a thaw to begin, I just need to
start writing again ..

How unpleasantĀ
Yes, no writer likes being word blind .. CheersĀ
I sense a note of deep deep frustration in this Nev... hope you are OK X
Being word blind is bad enough but when ya muse goes missing and you canāt even go looking for her because youāve just had surgery on your foot and the wound has managed to get infected aināt no laughing matter ššš·šx
Ohhh Nev... I hope you're up and about soon my friend. Sending you some healing and....fruit. š šš
šš... don't try to eat it it's not real. As for a muse... write without her... they're overrated anyway. Big Hugs to you and your foot my friend X
I know it may sound like sourĀ š's but I so very deliriously thank you me old fruit x
It sounds like you miss her very much. You know how it goes Neville. Muses go for a stroll and come back soon, sometimes she goes for a long walk. But from time to time she goes on a long hike, and will be gone for weeks.Ā
Sheās yours and will always come back to you. Ā
Oh no, so sorry about your foot. Hang in there mate. Sending lots of sunshine your way. BĀ

Just as well I got a bit on the side to keep me going through these long, lonely and very dark and what's more, somewhat painful hours ..
Thanks for that B, I think there may well be a glimmer ahead .. NevilleĀ
It sounds pretty serious, Neville. I am very optimistic and always try to see a bright side in everything. But I also realise that sometimes people donāt want to hear that. All they want is a hug. Plain & simple. So, from the other side of the world, I send you a Ā big & warm hug.Ā

See, I thought I sensed a glimmer on the horizon .. thanks for that Bernadete .. NevilleĀ
