Spill-Out Blues

 

I've got the spill-out blues

And don't know what to do's

My head has gone and emptied out

I'm feeling a bit whooze

 

My poem's completely useless

You know the reason why?

There's nothing in my head left

For me to even try

People who know Brian quite little
Do write things about him quite civil
But I've known him for quite some time now
And know what he writes can be drivel ?
