the muse

what can be more faithful than a tear

born in the womb of the solitary heart?

fragrant like a mother's lullaby

that gallops to the world of dreams


sorrow is the eternal muse-

the harp that God plays

to nourish the soul of man

in his pursuit of becoming "human"


where does happiness reside

but in the dark corner of disillusion

and when the tear of the night

turns to a dewdrop

the sun rises.
