there they sit in a file marked W.I.P. naked oppressors the lot --30--
Smirking menacing silent blank faces refusing to leave the shadows, oppressing my heart, depressing my soul. Horrible haunted place Words still and leaden works not yet alive. Works in progress not progressing blocking the march of ideas, stopping new works in mid sentence more works in stasis blocking stopping... My soul depressing, oppressing my heart silent blank faces smirking in the menacing dark
