Spent
The blank page mocks me
it's cold stare laughs at me
nothingness
Where have the ideas gone
they fled beyond my reach
snuffed
Did my eyes not see today?
my ears tuned out?
empty
I have nothing left to offer today
my thoughts have departed
spent

ReplyDeleteI'm right there with you. Just not too many words these days…
