"How can I be your muse?"

I ask, the painter

In wonderment

"What about your wife?"

I inquired


"Oh, a muse is a special connection"

He replied, wistfully

He placed his hand on mine

"It's not dirty!"

He said chuckling


However, the opposite of his words

Was implied

With the glint of his eyes


Her hair is vibrant

A gorgeous scarlet bounce

I smile at her

Even though she can't see me

While she holds hands with the painter

Crossing the street


"A muse is a special connection. It's not dirty"

I think

As I walk home

Thinking of scarlet paint
