Laptop is open, fingers poised,
TV is off, limited noise,
ready to write astonishing prose
when, as every writer knows,
nothing happens!
No words fall sweetly on the page.
I nod and doze, perhaps a stage
all writers face as they mature,
but of this fact I\'m very sure:
this stinks!
They call it \"writer\'s block\", I think,
but I suspect there is a link
to this odd thing called climate change.
I have been feeling rather strange.
That\'s it!
A rabbit\'s foot might do the trick.
I\'ll browse through Amazon and pick
a tin foil hat that I can wear
to keep the neutrons from my hair.
I\'ll write!
I was released just yesterday.
They took my hat and charm away,
but said the treatment helped a lot,
that it was not a climate plot, so
I\'m back!
Laptop is open, fingers poised.
What cares about unwanted noise?
I put two radishes in my ears,
my mind is sharp and very clear.
Let\'s write!
