Block
Hi everyone and welcome once again to my poetry blog.
It's been a while since I last posted which I apologise for but it's been a crazy few months.
I have a new one for you today which is written about a subject we can all sympathise with, the dreaded writers block. Some say it's a myth some live by it and for others it just happens from time to time. I also apologise in advance to any offended by adult language, it's here, sorry.

Black lines on white sheets
Quiver as I focus
The greatest words in history
Written in my own mind
Dissapear as pen touches
Always the same
The smell of Chai hangs in the air
Lyrics of the greats swirl
Painting images in the minds of others
My aim
to no avail comes
Always the same
Then a flash
A phospherous spark of light
Blinding momentarily then
Pen touches paper
Streams of conciousness scribbled down
A voice narrates, warm, grandiose
Adrenaline surges through veins
Mind races, still focused
A follows B follows C follows D follows E follows F
F
F
Fuck it!
Concentration atomised by mocking ringtone
Always the same
