Free Writing Assignment: Write whatever for 10 minutes on the words "language" and "goddess".
The proverbial Muse is a haggard bitch. She sits in the corner, spitting at me with crooked yellowing teeth, a far cry from the graceful goddess of epic lore. I wrinkle my noise at her stench, a sour odor of piss and sweat, mixed with the uncomfortable smell of a stale living room. It's the smell of my own imagined failure. No goddess of light and love, of poetry and music, of words and art, blesses me today. Today, she is a fucking bitch and won't let me write.
