Writer's Block

selfstruggles

It's a case of writer's block, my pencil is cocked,
The words fight to be release but that is not to be,
Emotions are trapped, my flow is flat,
Will I break free; I'm like an Englishman without his tea,
If my blood is my ink than my veins are dry I think,
There is no rhythm, no rhyme, I feel I'm wasting my time,
Looking for a way out, picking up my quill but having doubts,
Will I write or will the paper before remain white,
In my heart of hearts I feel depressed, I ask the Lord is this a test,
Has he taken back the gift he gave, that's like beating the pope with his on cane?
So I push forth in hopes this poem will open the door,
Poetry is like a drug, I need my fix like a 45 needs it's slug,
Where's my inspiration, I stare at this paper in anticipation,
No words to write, it's like I'm going 12 rounds in a heavyweight fight,
The words won't come, what has happen to The Phantom,
It's writer's block, what must I do to release this lock?
Forever Faithful
The Phantom

I am glad to you see again with a nice poem..
my dear friend you have not lost that poetic flavour..though you say your flow is flat..
In every stanza I found atleast one beautiful similie..among them the most hilarious one is "beating the pope with his o(w)n cane"..
I could never imagine such a superb phrase.
O.k, friend..I can say you have no problem of poetic inspiration..you have that burning fire..
only thing you require is you have to throw some dry-wood in it.
just break that lock of the store room in your mind..you can find some memories of past actions, experiences,and thoughts..
you can share with us..
much love :-) venkat

Pretty dang good for a block.
It's frustrating when you want to write but can't. As painful as it is to say this, but often you just have wait. |
