but the pages
are blank.

Oh, how I know this feeling all too well. Sometimes one must just bide their time until all the stars are in alignment, pray for inspiration to the All Mighty, or failing that, offer up a human sacrifice.

Hahaha human sacrifice to the poet Gods sounds good lol. Thanks Starbaby for your words. I wonder if it’s documented that Shakespeare had writers block during his career.

[Sami Khalil]

If you are blocked under the cap, pull them out of a rabbit's hat; be a magician instead of a poet or look around high and low for inspiration. If all fails, consult a crystal ball or a fortune teller. Lol

[andrew mitchell]

And if all that fails? Thanks Sami.

[Sami Khalil]

Hehehe! If all fails, do not jump off a cliff. You are welcome sir Andrew.

[andrew mitchell]

I’ll take the parachute.

[Sami Khalil]

Now that is an inspiration for a poem: Parachute jumping.

[andrew mitchell]

Only if it opens!

[Sami Khalil]

Here is one:
As he jumped off the plane, the parachute would not open. Realizing death is imminent, he pulled his cellphone and called his wife.
He said: "Honey! What's for dinner?"
His wife, thinking it was strange, asked him why?
He answered:" Well! I can't make it!"
Roll eyes followed.
Lol

This sounds sus. I’m getting Columbo to investigate, she packed the Shute.

[Sami Khalil]

Hehehe
Good idea

[Chris Shaw]

Very relatable Andrew for writers. The mind is willing, but the page remains blank. Been there so many times.

I’ve been in that rut for awhile. Thanks Chris.

Writer's block is never fun, and this is pretty spot on to what it feels like. For me, sometimes I just like to open up an empty document and write whatever falls from my brain and into my fingers. Here's hoping the writer's block fades away like a distant dream.

[andrew mitchell]

And the well is dry! Thanks Kane for your words.

[D. Mansfield]

That describes is well. It's no fun

[andrew mitchell]

Thank you D. Mansfield. No fun at all.
