The Writer's Block Curse

By Poetic Warlock

         This is bad,real bad.
The pen won't touch the pad.
         Try as I might,
I just can't write!
         I scribble it out and try again.
I wanna curse and shout and break this pen!
         It's a quarter past ten,
And this pad hasn't been written in!
        I look down and frown;
Not one verb,adjective,or noun!
       I jump out from my little nook,
And with disgust I throw my notebook!
       I'm just unable to write a verse,
It's the writer's block curse!!

       I restart looking deep within my heart.
I grip this pen but scrambled thoughts are tearing me apart.
       There's a dark cloud over my minds eye;
Silence can speak so loud and my thoughts are flying high!
       I concentrate and formulate a few words,
But nouns and sounds aren't complimenting my verbs.
       This isn't the norm,the sentences won't form.
My creativity in my mind is confined in a hailstorm!
       What could possibly be more worse?
I've sunk into obscurity of the writer's block curse......
