Tales from the Tall Fable Table

 


I need more notebooks…

I’ve been writing 

Developing 

It doesn’t seem to want to stop

Storylines become clearer 

Adventures 

More fleshed out

And the moment of inspiration 

Occurs more and more 

Almost obscuring 

My own will

As I sit here

On an early fall

Rainy day 

I do

Picture these endeavors 

In hard

Geometry 

Settled 

Comfortably 

In my hands 

Your hands

On shelves 

And under lights 

Most inevitably 

The task 

Now

Is to bristle up

And make fine 

The image 

The alphabet 

The reality 


“We’ve only just begun”

Is the notion 

On repeat 

In my mind

“Follow”

A chorus beckons 

No choice 

The Muses have spoken
