Oh where has that naughty girl gone?
Has she once more gone astray?
She hides in the oddest of places,
And she’s sometimes gone for days.
And who knows where she goes to,
And who knows where she’s been,
The men she’s used or substances abused,
It’s quite the ugly scene.
And when I find her she will fill my head,
With thoughts inappropriate,
And so you see it’s her not me,
Who writes this filthy smut.
Sometimes I try to punish her,
And call her a filthy whore,
But she wriggles her voluptuous bottom at me,
Giggles and cries “More!”
I try to coax her with love and nature,
But she just says it makes her ill,
And embarrasses me for even thinking it,
As my fingers type at her will.
From the satire of Shel Silverstein,
To the wit of Dorothy Parker,
But so morose she scorns my prose,
And urges me “Darker, darker.”

This is a very nice post. The sentiment beneath it has been very aptly put out there. I really like it.

It’s a very touching picture . I need more and more people to tell me what they feel about it .
Super heroes aren’t the only ones with alter egos. 🙂 Mine, like yours lurks and is prone to surface every now and then.
Who says you’re not a superhero??
Well, first of all, I don’t have any major motion pictures being made about me. 🙂 BTW, did you draw that charcoal picture?
Gosh no!! I may be okay at writing, my artwork is another story!
an impish git, is she? Mine leads me onto paths well–less than 8 fold! I was wondering when you and your gal we’re gonna come out an’ play again…:) 🙂
Let’s play freeze tag…wanna?
I don’t know if you want to meet her. She’ll probably do something utterly embarrassing…oh well, what the hell! Yours sounds a little crazy too!
And really we have no choice, do we. And when we try to resist it just gets embarrassing, as you say.
The only other choice is not to write!
That trampy little fun muse! She’s pretty lovable! 😉
I’m glad you like her. She’s driving me a bit batty!!
But she’s so fun!

DARK CAN BE GOOD….CREATIVELY!!!
Got to tell you that I am impressed that you would rhryme Dorothy Parker with darker. I am sure Dorothy would give you a thumbs up for that one. And I know where your muse goes, she shows up at my house. And she is one real bitch, I got to tell you.
Don’t I know it!!
