Muse In Limbo

Days Now
I am in limbo,
My muse refuses
To spike up
 
Glued to the screen
Not even the flicker
Will ignite my muse
 
Others, inspiring
Posts and blogs
Only make me
Marvel at
So much creativity
And genius
Out there.
 
Yet my muse
Is silent.
Perhaps
I am under
The weather
Perhaps
It is menopausal
Or a touch of blues
Or the boys
And hubby
Wearing me out
With incessant
Demands
Or I am
Just plain tired
 
Reading a chore
Not the joy
I know
Work a drag
As I lag
 
Wake up
Musy muse
Revive yourself
Blaze the laze
Away
Erase the haze
Dazzle
Thirsty cisterns
An Elixir
Your words
