PUZZLED POET

Andy Hunter

Today I decided to try and write something new
What's it going to be about? I haven't got a clue
So I stare at the screen, but I just can't think.
My brains like a pen, that's run out of ink
Analogy's a great theme, not done that before
But I hit a brick wall, as I can't think of anymore
Perhaps a memory? A dream? romance? or fears?
Looking for inspiration, but still with no ideas.
I try using my imagination and write down a few lines
Then look for other words to try and make them rhyme.
My objective was to write a poem with some eloquence
But everything I write down just simply makes no sense.
So to spark creativity I recall something from the past
Ideas come and go but the moment doesn't last.
I suppose some days my mind's just running a bit too slow
I try to write something meaningful, but nothing seems to flow.
