Paloma Walker Poet Rhyme

Here I Am Frozen

Here I am frozen
between planning and action
A very blank paper
Picture without caption

I know not what move to make
and certainly not how to make it
I helplessly try to trick my mind,
but I can't even fake it

A pulsating time bomb 
is ticking in my head
Agony throbs through
as nowhere I'm led

When will I be unparalyzed?
When will I see liberation?
I despise the clock with it's little time
I can't afford to be patient

Immobile and unsure
like a car without traction 
Here I am frozen 
between planning and action
