There's writers block in my urethra

I've not been around the WC lately so I gotta dust my skills off

I tried to write some fancy verse 

I couldn't find a rhyme 

I threw my meter at the cat 

So now I'm out of time 

My words they disappeared on me 

Up in a puff of smoke 

I screw around with this keyboard 

and then I start to choke 

I swear I wrote this all before

The lines all look the same 

How many rhymes can I commit 

and keep my muse aflame 

And though I'm good at doing this 

This rhyming writing shtick

It doesn't feed that old bulldog 

when past due bills are thick 

The world won't hold her baited breath 

for my ingenious rhyme 

I had to go to work today

Where I earned every dime 

Perhaps I'm having writers block 

Perhaps I'm getting bored

No matter how you slice it up 

My skills can't be ignored 

So now I wrote another Rhyme 

to get back in the swing 

I'll post it on the old cafe

Where I can reign as king

Baby picture make me read this poem. Needed this poem. Life too serious. Going to die one day anyway. Need to have some fun before I jump off the new Detroit to Canada bridge. Just kidding. I hope you are doing well. Always good to read your work.

and you have reigned quite well, this poem doesn't seem like you have reached writers block...

[Pax]

that's what i feel at times, feels like my theme are over-rated or they comes back, i know i do... glad that you pull through... we all feel that way, we just have to find the things that put our writing drive on the road...

You penned exactly how I am feeling lately... and you wrote it better than I could right now! Must be something in the air... Even blocked, you still have the chops, Mark!

You're welcome my friend. We missed you too. BUT I bet you're arms are thicker than my legs so ... sometimes a little time away has its rewards. God Baby, have you ever seen such a gym craze sweep the world since Olivia Neutron Bomb wanted us all to get physical. Theres a gym on every corner here in Belfast these days. Better than gangs drinking on every corner though lol
