Don'T Ask Me Because I Don'T Know

It's a mystery to write when you have nothing in mind Especially when every thought seems to be unkind. "Write from the Heart" is what they say But, if your head isn't in it, there's trouble along the way. So you trot out ideas that may be plain Then you bring out the ones that are completely inane. Oh, for an idea to get something started Only the heart and the brain have long since parted. In desperation you ask someone to give a title to you They give you that blank look, because they think you a fool. But, even their negative response can trigger the flow... I just heard one when they said, "Don't ask me, because I don't know".
