a lock without a key

 

 

 

 

 

On empty pages as blank as me

 

I search for character

 

For an essence to set me free

 

Alas, I am like a lost mariner

 

Floundering somewhere far at sea

 

These words mere syllable

 

They fall apart without esprit

 

Like desert lands untillable

End my drought, oh end it quickly

 

Piles of crumpled ideas that lay in waste

 

I beg my muse to assign a new decree

 

Let there be a dribble, please a mere taste

 

It is as if, I remain a lock without a key

 

All and all my poetry seems misplaced
