Lacking Inspiration

I woke up this morning and knew what I'd do, I'd write me a poem, or I'd maybe write two So pen at the ready and coffee on tap, I waited for something to fall in my lap. I waited, I waited, and waited some more I stared at the ceiling, I stared at the floor, I stared at the window, I stared at the wall but nothing inspired me, nothing at all. I'm sure one day I'll be seeing the light, my head will be oozing with things I can write But today it appears that I'm losing my zest and maybe for now I should give it a rest and come back tomorrow, all raring to go and write something special when I'm in full flow.

Quite catchy. Uninspired? This is as inspired as they get if you as me
