Pause Button
Of late, my muse: needy.
A truce or a treaty
it seems is in order.
The flow, rather meager,
unwilling, not eager,
a poetic hoarder.
It's coming and going;
it's fun when it's flowing.
It's frustrating knowing
fatigue has been showing
and output is slowing:
a single oar rowing.
The brain needs a resting,
from rhyming and jesting,
The cells need recharging,
expanding, enlarging.
I'll pause the keyboarding
hop the excavator,
get the engines roaring,
come back again later.
