my muse is on lunch break

as much as i like muse work, because it allows me to write freely, i hate it just as much. i enjoy using it instead of having to write a poem in a set format, but then again, it frustrates me at the same time. sometimes i'm just not inspired to write something at 1020 in the morning during class time. it got annoying for me before doing workshop when we had to write a poem based on our readings. sometimes i came to a blank. a blank that i couldn't even write about because it was so empty. most of the time i can only write my best work when something happens to me or if i have a very strong emotion about something going on in life. for example, i'm going through a lot right now between family and school and friends. i could probably write a million poems based on those emotions. but if you gave me a concrete object to write about, i wouldn't be able to do that because my mind is focused on something else. my muse likes to take breaks whenever it damn well pleases and makes it hard for me to write poems, at least good ones, when it doesn't want to participate
