Ode to my Poetry Assignment: An Ars Poetica
October 3, 2008
The blank word document
stares back at me,
the white screen glares,
and my mind goes empty.
What is there to fear in a poem?
It can’t bite …
It haunts my brain as
I wander through
The internet.
Turn on the mp3 player.
Music echoes
through my ears.
A sliver of nothing.
Where art thou,
Inspiration?
Class ends in 10 minutes,
time to panic.
Everything spills out,
The page fills up
To describe
the symptoms
of
Writers block.
