Writer's Block
Nothing is more violent
than a printer spewing
out its ink. The yellow
isn't bad,
but the magenta,black
and blue have tattood
my hands, my wrists,
forever. Am I done?
Oh,well, there's always
turpentine,
but who has that?
With my livid hands
I can't go to a paint store,
let alone Lowes or Home Depot.
I'm a desperate thing.
My hands have suffered
through this writing period.
Nothing's come these months.
With my 78% lung capacity
I give a long raspy neigh-ay-ay-ay-ay,
more horse than human
and about as smart.
