Writer's Block
The constant aching of deep despair
A cutting sword to the novelist’s pen
Mythical creatures are no match for this legendary obstruction
The chaotic stillness proof of the battle inside a genius mind
The search for a word, phrase or rhyme
Ever reaching for that just beyond his grip
Literary collections are not of use
What is written is cemented, not to be moved,
The perfect sentence not his for the taking
He returns to the parchment
The ink drips from his quill
The dark spot is a new world for discovery
