Ink Induced Insanity

There is ink in my veins, don't you know.
That my dearie, is what makes them blue.
That is why the lines are there.
I must get the ink out.
So I 
Take my 
HARMLESS  little  KniFe and cut the ink away.
But OH MY, my dear, the ink doesn't like me,
It wont come out creamy and blue.
Maybe I CUT  too soft,
Because the ink comes out of my arm RED.
And tsk, tsk, my dear,
You're supposed to find me ink,
And
You know how I get UPSET
When I can't write anymore.
So my dear, it's a good thing that you made me
Not be able to write,
Because now,
I can just take your ink.
So no, no, don't pull at the ROPES my dear,
I'll only take some ink.

 

Author's Note

I saw something somewhere about how writers have ink in their veins, and this just kind of popped into my head, and I just had to come write it down before I forgot, so...what do you think?

Ah, yes. The ink coming out red tends to be a real problem! lol. Great write! I loved the feel of insanity. The way you made it seem justified in the mind was great. I loved this!

I would say this read somewhat choppy, but for the subject matter, that almost helped. It felt crazy reading it. Very nice, thanks for sharing.

Funny...
You need to be cautious when cutting my veins... I guess I'm running out of ink already...
