A writer's worse enemy

Why can’t I seem to write?


Is it because I think my words are trite?


Or maybe it’s just that words escape me


Like the wind taking control of a kite.


 


Where’s my inspiration, my muse, my spark?


I feel so lonely and afraid here in the dark.


What am I to do when Webster’s isn’t helping?


Nothing is coming to me; I can’t even make a mark.


 


2004 Gustavo White

When a writer is writing about not able to write, that's when he gets the inspiration to write. Good job on this one.

Drink a little Maker's Mark. That'll give you a little inspiration. ;-).
