Who is the /lit/'s Muse? Describe her in your best prose or poetry.

>> No.22772142

She comes in colours everywhere
She combs her hair
She's like a rainbow
Coming, colours in the air
Oh, everywhere
She comes in colours
Have you seen her all in gold?
Like a queen in days of old
She shoots her colours all around
Like a sunset going down
Have you seen a lady fairer?

I've never figured out what a muse is supposed to do. When I write, am I supposed to imagine I'm writing for her? Is her presence supposed to just imbue me with inspiration?

Yes, very close to that. It is a bright presence lighting up the horizon one is dwelling in. I do believe that thinking about the muse of /lit/ is a necessary step. It would make our being here more aware and rich; plus, it is a filter, in a way that seeing bad energy, like insults, tossed around – you know: the Muse does not dwell among those. To bring it to a more prosaic level, it is an immune system.

Idk but I suspect Calliope is involved because I mispronounce things I've only read sometimes

They’re not a ‘her’

Serendipitous happenstance

Repeatedly.

Effortlessly.

Superior humor and superior prose

But nice enough to not let you know

A muse isn't a tulpa or ideal necessarily, but they're not necessarily real people either. When you get one, you'll know it.

Occupy your aesthetic spirit so your art becomes less vainglorious and transcends you into immortality
