When life gives you lemons, make Lemonade and use the profits to buy a assault rifle. Then see if life makes the same mistake twice.

I can’t think of anything to write,
my ideas, like a bird, have taken flight.
I sit here in my chair,
all alone, waiting for an idea.

At this point I would set my hair
on fire or get diarrhea
for an idea that would help me write
a poem.

I might be up all night,
or dissolve into atoms
and die.

The sad truth is...
“sigh”
I have writers block.

The author's comments:
I had to write a poem for creative writing class, but I didn't have any ideas, so I wrote about writers block, and eventually it made its way into a poem format.
