Dear Mr. Block:



Fanatical infiltration plagues me

Damn near daily

However...

I'm on some other shit

Keeping my guard up

My vulnerability in tact

Waiting for the truth

Truth

So I can write a fuckin poem

For everyone's ear

to hear

My hands are petrified

And my mind is bemused

blank

And for some damn reason

My heart produces no ink

And no man fabricates inspiration

My pen has since dried

My paper

now a relic

I can't read poetry

I can't hear poetry

And fuck!

I can't write poetry!

I curse you Writer's Block!

The impedance you instigate

I want my ability back

So I don't have to write to

Your ass anymore



Peace & Poeticness,

Poet

Author's Notes/Comments: 

Writer's block plagues poets like a disease! I am not immune...I only hope that it passes quickly and quietly...

Godammit it so true! I recently went on this writing binge and now suddenly I can't think of ANYTHING! I'm staring at a blank notebook finding it easier to see what happens when you spray large amounts of deodorant on a single page. Have you got any tips for a writer dying in my own self-loathing. Swing by my guestbook and give me some wisdom if you can.

LOL... Loved this. Plus, I feel you, Mr. Block is forever stalking those with pen. And if it's not him ... it's his boy "Forgotten Thought."

Ill scribe!

Peace and Blessings
