Waiting For The Muse Of Inspiration


There's no worst enemy for an artist,

than one's lack of abillity to do! 

Waiting for one's muse is not the smartest.

Sometimes, inspiration is a hard chew.

 

You must light the fire of passion yourself! 

From within you can find your potential.

We can see our inspiration ourselves,

and only us. We are differential. 

 

Lazy fools wait for the muse to find them.

A truly inspired soul need not wait.

For true beauty arises from the slum,

your truest potential there on the slate.

 

True inspiration is found from within,

even if outward offerings are very thin.
