Poetic inspiration (4)

I believe the answer is:

muse

(Other definitions for muse that I've seen before include "Source of artistic inspiration" , "Contemplate -- a goddess of the liberal arts" , "Think - goddess of the liberal arts" , "Cogitate" , "Inspiring goddess" .)

I've seen this clue in The Wall Street Journal.
