Lexical Drought

The amount of times I
have strung a slew of
letters together and
deleted them today is
atrocious pitiful.

I have spent hours staring
at an unnamed document,
demanding a line
that will never be written.

I want to bang my head
onto my keyboard
and have the perfect verse
slammed onto my screen.

Or maybe throw my laptop
at the wall,
smacking out the perfect rhyme.

Perhaps tomorrow –

Calculating Enlightenment
