Poetry Im Stuck

my poetry has gone south
like a unrepentant priest
I am stuck in a purgatory
All I observe is politics
but that's an obvious target
I feel lacking inspiration
Where is nature
the yarn of a kelp
a mud baked hippopotamus in Safari
or an ominous looming blackbird

Well, I think your imagination is still there, Antony, what with kelp and hippopotamus and blackbirds! I have my poetic “droughts” as well. You’ll get it back soon, I think! Enjoyed (and related) to this! :)
