Writers Block ( A Poetic Coma )
Black ink taunts me as it drips
Smudging my lines
Smearing the words across my soul
You
Have
Nothing
Maybe if I dipped the quill in my own blood
The aftermath would bring solace..
(self sacrifice)
Here I offer up a part of myself
(for your viewing pleasure)
The broken pieces to the highest bidder
I am the (un)ob(servant) poet
A slave
& a master to the art
An artist
Starving for my (alphabet) soup
I am (a) em(pathetic) (attempt
at an intellectual piece (peace) of mind)
The paper cuts
& it drips..
. .
..
.......
...you
....have....
nothing....
My pens
They run as dry as my mouth
Cracked
Split at the edges
& spitting up dust
From the thirst for creation
The vowels dance with syllables
(entwining)
Hurling themselves against my temples
A
E
I
O
U
Have nothing
Fucking words anyways..
