I wait for my muse
to whisper
truth in every color
in form of stanzas
I record the words
honey-golden or corpse-gray
or somewhere bittersweet
in between
Then my pen lies
dormant, waiting
for my muse
to speak again.
This is an original poem I wrote.
Ars Poetica by definition is basically a poem about the art of poetry. The poem above is my take. Ars Poetica is a great idea to pursue if you are experiencing writer’s block, or simply if you are passionate about poetry.
