Writer's Block

Writer's Block

A Poem by Michael G. Smith

Put my head
Upon the writer's block 
Lop it off
See what's inside
'Cause I've got nothing

Its funny, i have read numerous pieces on writers block and they all say the same thing. I experienced it not so long ago and it was horrible. But it happens to the best in the world and they fought through it to create masterpieces for us all to read. It gets hard...yes. but it does go if you persevere or read s book in your genre to kickstart you own ideas.
Never give in. Always believe. Always fight back.
Not so much a review i know but, i just though i'd put this out there.

Ohh...A simple and tricky writing....out of "nothing".
I liked it cause I find myself in that nothing many times, however, I never could bring out something so meaningful from it.

This made me smile. Really, I feel empty headed often enough, with only that irritating buzzing sound in the head telling me to just kick it lol 😛
You summed up that feeling nicely 👍

Gee
The more you try the harder you fail, bit like trying to date a bird that's got no interest in you.
