Muse Don’t Ask (#2)

careful with that keyboard, human
lest your muse has beckoning cleavage
or her navel unravels your volition
intelligent demons operate nearby
alert in a twilight betwixt goodness and evil
a new ethos stalks its own birth
whence good and bad are obliterated
in their stead glisten ‘healthy’ and ‘unhealthy’

It’s objective; the muse needn’t be aware
careful with that keyboard, human
