Can I Buy An Extra Word Or Two

My brain is on holiday Sure wish it would alert me I'm cruising along having a ball Then WHAM!!! “Sorry, I'm on holiday” Doesn't happen often to me But when it does, I freak out What if in my remaining years I never write another poem Yikes! What a calamity that would be Still got lots to write about I think I have... I know I have... I'm sure I have But what happened??? Something is short circuiting my thought box Write the first line, then scrap it Write the first line, then scrap it Write the first line, then scrap it Help!!! Someone please tell me what to do Have the “thought police” intervened Have I exceeded my yearly word count already Please oh great overseer of verboseness If I have exceeded my limit Can I buy extra words for the year I'll pay big dollars...
