MUSE AT MIDNIGHT [R, 4-4-19]


Midnight rain calls forth
poems the same way a pungi
calls forth a cobra
from a basket

The poetry muse looks
on from the crowd
her feet still beautiful
from a stint
upon the mountain

Wait, what?
The rain is falling
and it is midnight

Does she not have enough
sense to get out
of the rain?

John Robert McFarland
