Blank Thoughts 4-21-01

A blank sheet of paper
                                             Sits without meaning in front of me
                                             I stare
                                             As a child, this paper would been alive
                                             Jumping in and out of worlds, so vividly.
                                             Adulthood is near
                                             I see no pictures
                                            My mind remains blank and black
                                            I stare
                                           New ideas are out of reach, too deep
                                           My head aches
                                           I think of nothing.
