Leave Me Alone

Ah, you again? Enough! Please, enough, writer's block! Leave me alone. Remove... This crippling hex you've put on me. I need no vacation! Allow my pen To get from point A to B. Quit drying up my ink. Let it flow. I implore you, let it bleed! You seem to enjoy sticking to me Like a stamp on an envelope. I need some room to breathe! Please, leave me alone. Quit stifling my creativity. You pinion the wings Of my imagination. Snip off the strings So it takes flight again. Bother me no more. Leave me alone, I said!

Occurs from time to time … a way of the universe whispering ‘it’s me, not you, that writes’

That muse tends to be moody from time to time. Well said, Edward. Who hasn't experienced this hurdle in creativity!
