Exceptional
This work has reached the exceptional level
Are muses either dark or light?

A chapter in the book My Life in words

Dark Muse.

by Jaq Cee

Darkness rents space in my mind,
it's always cruel and so unkind.
I feel it's tendrils curling round,
strangled thoughts; beaten down.

Oft' times I've said, 'begone dark muse',
just to wonder, if my words I'll lose.
So stay with me my nefarious friend,
prompting, pushing, until life ends.
