Actually, that one was inspired by yesterday's horoscopes. My supervisor read her horoscope, and it said her "love zone" would be busy, which made us all laugh, and I said we needed to write a song called "Love Zone" and my supervisor gave me the first line, "she stole my heart, she stole my shoes".
Within 5 minutes I had the above poem written.

Where is My Muse?
It's been five years
since I've been here last
I can't believe
all that time has passed
the talkative one
with nothing to say
I wonder why
my muse went away
no strokes to the keyboard
talent output suspension
perhaps someone else
required her attention
so she had to leave
and inspire another
perhaps my needs
left her feeling smothered
reread some old poems
viewed with a new light
stirred something within
and I started to write
My muse has returned
she's no longer away
and I truly hope
that she's here to stay

The Poet Laureate of Bettermost has returned! :D

2020
------------------------
Where are your gloves?
Where is your mask?
I can not believe
that you're making me ask
Did you get extra water
perhaps toilet paper
snuck yourself an extra bundle
like it's some criminal caper
stress levels are climbing
tension thick enough to see
and now we are mourning
the Notorious RBG
No sports to be seen
no punter or batter
taking part in the protests
set up by Black Lives Matter
refugees captured
hurricanes hit the coast
murder hornets invading
while politicians boast
everyone is watching
and everyone fails
while our leaders drive
our country off the rails
storm surges crashing
up under the docs
while racists come crawling
from under their rocks
times are feeling bleak
please don't give up hope
though it feels it, we're not
at the end of our rope
So go light some sage
or meditate or pray
soon we'll be sending
this awful year away
the darkness will fade
with the rising sun
hoping for a better
and brighter 2021
