To Circle Round the Dratted Old-Writer's Block

 

When I sit down right here to write

To set those things aslant aright

 

About my awesome current plight,

 

My mind convenes quite stubborn blank

No matter much I push and yank;

 

For that I sense myself to thank.

You've been in my head!

There's been an unusually long stretch of creative blockage happening here in my own head. As frustrating as it can be, waiting it out is the only thing we can do....I guess. Unfortunately, patience is not one of my greater virtues. Nice write for not being able to write!
