Writer's Block

[Wjames]

I tried to walk around the
block, and wound up rotting
in my chair.

I tried to dig below the
block, got trapped beneath
without a prayer.

I tried to climb above the
block, where air’s too
thin to breathe.

I shut my eyes and
fell asleep, woke up
later writing dreams.

It took me two reads to truly appreciate this one. I absolutely love the ending. Thanks for sharing.

This is about the best description of what writer's block feels like that I've come across. I'm a huge fan of the way you structured and rhymed this, too. It was whimsical yet deep. Awesome!

Good One!

Looks like you smashed the
Block to bits and got it down
For us to see

You pushed and got the
Block to tip, so you could write
And we could read

I like the structure and rhyme of this so I had to try. Thanks!

Love it!

This one tool me multiple reads to fully enjoy, and it was well worth it. Love the slant rhymes and the clever repetition, and can definitely relate! Thanks for sharing!
