fear is here in full force today

I stare at the pristine white blank page She intimidates me, I know she feels my fear I am not the enemy I say If you crumple me up, I will bite you, she says I remember my last paper cut. It was not fun. I need to start typing But fear holds me back. Come on! My muse says. Don’t be a pussy! I am intimidated by her too. She can be demanding, commanding. And crazy? A voice whisper in my ear. Damn fear! She is here in full force today.
