Nothing rhymes with inspiration.
Well, yes, I know that's not true,
I know there's many words out there
but my mind isn't working right.
Writer's block,
the dreaded disease.
I can't write a thing,
a word is just a word today,
ain't got a single meaning.
Nothing rhymes with inspiration,
nothing at all today.
Nothing in my mind is clicking,
I just can't write that poem.
I scan the world outside my window,
looking for that simple word
that's stuck behind my mind.
I just can't see that light.
My mind is running far too slow,
the time keeps ticking by.
Why can't I remember?
Why can't I think?
Nothing's flowing right.
Nothing rhymes with inspiration
so I rest my head against the wall
and sigh with deep exasperation-
-My writer's block just ended.
