Writer's Block (a Poem)
A Poem About the Frustration of Writer's Block
Oh here I sit staring at a blank screen with no ideas and nothing to glean
I've searched the internet to no avail and now here I sit without a tale
What can I do to unclog my brain
If this keeps up much longer I may go insane.
I think it's time to step away from the computer and perhaps take a ride on my son's motor scooter.
Maybe acting like a child will get the juices flowing and perhaps it may help to get me going.
So wish me luck that I can get out of this rut and write a new article that will kick some butt.

A challenge we all face from time to time. I guess the mind needs a little rest now and then and that's why we get writer's block. The brain's way of saying, "Give me a break!".
