Nothing To See

A Senryu

my pen nib scratches
the surface of a blank page
invisible ink

Been there, done that. What a great Haiku very identifiable and tangible. At the same time it is psychological and metaphorical in that so many times choices in life are not clear or apparent and we sit without knowing how to act, frozen in inaction. Great write

Haha coincidently, I just wrote a bunch of senryu today too. They are a good way to break writer's block and get the muse going again.
I reckon this one is also about writer's block (although other readers might interpret it differently). Only the writer can see the struggle of having no inspiration and staring at those god-awful blank pages, hoping some switch would go off in her mind and her pen would flow. The struggles are writ with invisible ink only the writer sees in her work.

Thanks Moonie. That is all I could manage a couple of weeks ago. The dreaded block comes to us all. Hoping to get some inspiration in the spring weather. I appreciate your visit.
