Writer's Block

                                      -Published in Swallow the Moon 2016


My eyes are tired
As I stare in SPACE
I can't ignore the
Dull
Throbbing

Pain
In my seemingly
Brain dead head.
I try to take all my thoughts and
S C A T T E R
Them until something brilliant
F
  L
    O
       W
          S
             From my pen...

                                         ...to paper.
This blank sheet of paper mocks me.
As the clock ticks
And tocks
The Time
Away.
There is a block in my mind
Resembling one of two things:
A GIANT WALL
Or a dark cloud  
                          Hovering 
                                          Over
                                                    My head.
I can't seem to see
Through this FOG
How annoying
This writer's block of mine.
