Redundancy
I think there's a hole
or a leak in my head,
all the words have spilled out
and left parts of me dead.
I can no longer muster
an original thought,
the words that I find there
are weak and distraught.
The well has run dry,
to coin a phrase,
but that, too, is trite
and seen better days.
Seen better days?
I've done it again.
You could fit my creativity
on the head of a pin.
Another trite phrase!
I've truly run dry
and now I'll be gone
in the blink of an eye.
Oy.
