The Evaporation of Inspiration

Once upon a time…
The words were rivers in my mind
They flowed endlessly
Ceaselessly
Reaching a waterfall
They would crash
Tumbling, relentless
Inspiration; never-ending
Hitting the rocks
Ink on the page in front of me
Now the river is no more
The constant beating of the sun
Has turned the words to dust
They form but crumble
Instantly
I hold pen in hand
And stare intently at it
The black well is full with ink
But as dry and as barren as the desert

this is a horrible state to be in and you've described it beautifully with perfect metaphor.
I see you haven't posted for some time,are you still subject to this state?Having read your work I'd like to read more.
