Lost in/with/without Words

It’s been a long, hard, cold night
I’m lonely without my constant chattering friends
Words and their companionship have nearly departed
Wordless poets are silent radios
Synapses in my brain misfire
Nothing spews that anyone could read
White space without a prompt is scary
The blank page without an assignment is deafening
I wish the muse would pick a frequency
I would tune in faithfully
So the tune of beautiful language could float unfettered
