i usually write in a nostalgic or humorous slant to my stuff.
recently i've been reading everything from sexton to chaucer.
today i tried to write a poem for serious critique and bugger me if i couldn't decide how to write it. it's not a writers block as such but more of a glut. every time i try and do a poem i have to stop because it's so like something i've recently read. it;s like the dead poets are speaking in tongues through me. i managed to get a really short one out but the longer poem keeps stealing from other places. i'll try to do one later when my heads empty.
