On the Block

I am sitting here frustrated
Wondering what to write
Every time I have and idea
Writing becomes a fight.

The paper eagerly waits
The fondling strokes of the pen
But for some reason my hand
Keeps asking my brain what then?

They just won’t work in unity
I cannot find that urge to scribe
I think I’ve lost the edge
I don’t feel the vibe

If anyone has ideas what I can do
I’m sitting by the sea near the dock
Look for the lost soul
Suffering from writer’s block
