Writers Block

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.
