Please, come back
I’ve been left on read
sent to voicemail
I may be blocked
ghosted
They’ve gone silent before
without announcement
Am I ungrateful
for their dulcet hand?
They then return
to look over my shoulder
while I scribble, stare,
and strikethrough
Delicate and volatile Muse,
I never know
If you’ve left me for good

That feckless Muse! I can relate
Such a fickle bunch! I love how you bring this into the modern world. Ghosted by the muse – priceless!
