Poem: Muse

so many books

                the master has read

yet he leaves me here

                in front of this blinking screen

while he's still searching

                for inspiration

                               that muse

which would kick-start

                his career

but he never asked me

                never wanted to hear my ideas

the adventures I find

                when he's not around

so on this comfortable sofa I wait

                until he finds

                the muse in me
