When writing is your only outlet, what do you do when you have writer's block? |
| Blank mind, blank pages. My muse has gone On vacation, leaving me Alone And locked up within myself; My desperation burning holes Onto a bruised consciousness, since The steam cannot escape. How do I vent now? When there is no Solid outline Visible through a veil of gray, When the road paved with notebook lines Has faded From beneath my feet, How can I determine Which premise will lead me Out of the forlorn bog? I just can't. Those empty pages Float carelessly across the room, Urging me To infuse them with sentiment, To transform them into landscapes, And populate them with souls. Will I never live up to expectations? Let them drift Away, To more a more promising prison, Where a less tormented mind Can inscribe them with The wisdom and emotion I wish I could supply. |
