Writer’s Block
Random words on an empty page
My soul is struggling to write,
With jumbled nouns and tangled verbs
I found no adjectives in sight.
Those fragments act like circus clowns
They start stumbling on the run,
The subject wants a contract signed
Before the paragraph is done.
The cliff is hanging on the edge
And waiting for my decision,
A pronoun or a proper noun?
Is revenge in my revision?
As my eyes begin to tango
I am mesmerized by the clock,
The participles begin to dance
Damn this writer's block.
