My muse it comes;my muse it goes
What does inspire it no one knows
Sometimes I pen something funny
Sure won't earn me any money!

The Muse seems to owe accountability to no one; she abandons or inspires us seemingly on her whim. I’m glad to see that you do not antagonize yours by ignoring her, even if she inspires only light verse that brings even lighter compensation!
