Ink

I need to write But my pen won’t seem to work I shake the tip Scribble as hard as I can Tear through the paper But still no words The ink cartridge is full Overflowing Blue spilling over the top Running down the sides Staining the paper But still no words come through My hands are stained Black sinking in around my fingernails Forming rivers on my palms Drop the pen Spell with my fingers But try as I might My words won’t come through Who’s holding the pen anyway?
