Ode To Lacking Inspiration

I don't feel much like writing this poem,

for there's nothing that much on my mind;

No birds are a-tweeting, no cattle are lowing,

or maybe my perceptions are blind.

 

For want of an alternative merit,

I find now is the right time to stop.

If a poem won't work, then end it

to limit the scope of the rot .
