Jslambert Mister Roboto Poet Free verse

Writer's B L O C K--

Writer’s Block 
is a farce
a blue excuse
with no good reason
an open ended discussion
of waste

Writer’s Block
hangs out 
with Santa  
drinking  
no reason to join them 
at the North Pole 
of nowhere

Writer’s Block
is a temptation
a black rose
waiting
in the hand of the wicked
telling you 
it’s okay to be lazy 

Writer’s Block
is an imaginary friend
of the desperate
feasting on your company
and the smell of your beauty

Writer’s Block
is a weak hoax
marinating in dumb
a submissive idiot 
who barely exists
so leave him alone 

Writer’s Block 
is fine without you 
let him be single
You are better 
without the mix of his device.

Sidney Hall Mad Poet July 24, 2011 at 8:20 PM I see you are like me. When I suffer from writer's block I write about it. Good poem. thanks for the comment. However my friend Glen was offended by one of the verses in this piece. Jslambert Mister Roboto July 25, 2011 at 8:35 AM is Glen an Imaginary friend? lol

Kabuteng P.Ink K. July 18, 2011 at 8:30 AM Ooh, what a very unique and refreshing take on writer's block, JS :) Really enjoyed this one-- you could have also included that he is the Boogey Man :D-- I sure would also like to think that this block is non-existent or if it did exist, would easily crumble with the blow of a mallet :) Very cool thoughts you put in here :D

Andrea Dietrich July 16, 2011 at 9:48 AM This is great!! But come on, do your really think that it's not possible to have writer's block? It's like insomnia. When it's around, you sure wish to heck it WERE just imaginary. The underlying message here, however, is right on point!
