Drawing from an empty barrel

I'm suffering from a combination 

Of boredom and anticipation

Literary constipation 

Messing up my "mind's elation"

 

I need some kind of deviation

To move my thoughts out of station

A moving occasion

To end my dull procrastination

 

Drawing from an empty to barrel

And drowning in my sorrows

â—„ Letting go...

Spontaneous human combustion â–º

On writing. Meta-analysis. Short, but for sure a great one none the less!
