I miss it.
I wish to sit
amid those many characters
once more smoking my bent pipes,
trying to ignore their criticism
as the story crashes
into some blockade.
The Mental Patio,
and the mystic fire-pit
slowly are forming up again
within the bone fortress of skull
where my tales all begin,
with smoke, coffee, and
bits of determination.
Come, my friends!
I call forth again
that circle around warmth
that once I cherished so much,
of imaginary friends who sit
with me during striving
to tell stories.
Hark, a sparkle.
Just a small ember
of that old blazing cauldron
that kept me warm while writing,
and whose dancing flames lit
shadows into distinct forms
hinting at characters.
I exhale slow,
to excite that glow
into the bonfire of imagination
that once blazed in my mind,
providing a strange inner space
within my thick skull
for tales birth,
blossom, grow,
and more.
