Muse Be Gone

                        Muse be Gone

Late at night my muse interrupts
dancing wildly through my head.
Irritating as the sound of June beetles
trying to reach the light,
frantically beating wings upon the screen,
which I flick with my fingers
sending airborne in retreat.
But my muse continues to stir up imaginings
and refuses to be requited.
