Unwritten

My notebook is next to me as always.

Bent and covered in drool.

I did speak to myself but it was nothing but rambling and scrambling.

My notebook is here with lines on the pages but the lines are wavering.

I can’t write in the lines like they taught us in school.

The pen is somewhere on this bed.

Or maybe it scurried into a crevice.

I have nothing to write with.

I have nothing, but thoughts.

I have no pen.

So I have no choice but to shiver in bed.
