It seems to me, the muse is the opposite of the vampire. Where the vampire drains, the muse fills. But never fulfills. They come in dreams and setup labyrinths of different sorts, and when you finally get to the centre, they're already off designing another. And of course, unlike the vampire, who always seems to be around every corner and knocking at your door and even coming to other places where they assume you are, the muse becomes more and more elusive. They travel a lot, or work a lot. They're self-reliant, and are capable of being alone, which is good, since I like to be alone. And need to be to work on things. And finally, while the vampires are many and bisexual; the muse is only one. . . . And the muse demands that you have an audience, they have really no interest in whatever activities or career they themself inspire in you. Just as long as you're creating or working at something.
And the last thing I want to say on this subject is that I've spent my life since the age of five mistaking the vampire for the muse. So the muse finds me perplexing and a bit comical.
Oh, and since the muse is the only one that can disarm the dark spirit, my greatest fear is that if I don't keep my distance, I might become a vampire. So I become perplexingly elusive too.
