Where Are The Words

Confused and absent
Don't know where the
muse went
Words tatter about
making no sense
where in the world is
my head
My eyes wonder, rolling
around as if words
would puncture out
of the air
I wait
but Nothing
Nothing there
Hm, when will it all
come together
Those words once fluid
and nice
making its entrance a lovely
stay for ego's sake
All of the flavor
of the hands' true savor
Once aspired
These rages, these words
Rattling in cages
Locked up
Not realized
Til emotion's sway
Comes in the dark
of a moonless night
