I've seen the first snowflake of he season, and it filled me with elation, excitement, and made me want adventure. I know you won't likely get snow, but I hope you can get those feelings, too.
I used to think the season really changed people, you know? That people were nicer, more cheerful, and generally just better people. Retail work proves that wrong with every day we come closer to those Christmas gatherings and dinners.
I did it. I kissed my muse square on the lips. They were sweet and fragile. Few had done that to her before. Fewer still the things since. She feeds the writing with actions and moments, spurring me to recreate the details.
And so I will spur you on. Write for me a poem, Jolie. Short is fine but longer is better, of course. Write to me of winter's coming, though in your end of the country it's more mild. But that doesn't mean it's any less harsh.
My muse has somewhat returned. She's not like I remember, doesn't even look the same, but can feel very right. Her hugs are clean and warm and smell like a fall day. Sometimes, they last too long to be friendly. Almost dangerous, her arms around my neck, stretched out to make up the height difference, fingers entwined behind my neck, I look her in the eyes. Sometimes, I think I want to kiss her. Sometmes, I think she wants me to.
My muse eludes me, Jolie. I sit, and stare, and my fingers hover over my keys, but nothing appears on the screen. I am a well pumped dry, hoping a little groundwater seepage will refuel me.
