Water and Ink

Water and Ink

A Poem by Rick r
"

My description of writer's block

"

I close my eyes
Try to sleep
I see a wave of ink
A cloud of black
In water
No rhyme
No poem or verse
I'm going blind
I need a nurse
Breasts like cumuli
Hips as wide as a nautical mile
To get me back to sea
To help me see
To make me smile.

Were you experiencing writers block when you wrote this? I'm impressed. Your word choice is what makes the poem so powerful, it's perfect for such a short piece. Nicely done. :)

I'm thinking I like your muse much better than mine.
