An ode to writers block! The mind empty lacks all sensation Seeking now poetic inspiration John Drury sits unopened here Writers block, my biggest fear Teachers say - write that you know of Sadness, joy, hate or even love But if there is a void of those How can I write my poetry or prose? I seek music to soothe this burning desire “come on” Jose, ‘Light My Fire’! Nothing then but keyboard and screen Venting now, my poetic spleen. **Note: John Drury is the author of my favorite 'kick me in the butt for inspiration' book titled Creating Poetry. |

I always new Liver was poetic, but a spleen ? great, I would love to have one of those . I thought good poetry was suppost to come from the Heart not the spleen or a book by John Drury . Humourful as ever . With poetry as your weapon - express your iner feelings so all may carry your sorrow, united as one . |

and what a wonderful spleen it is! Can't imagine you with writer's block. I bet you could write an incredible poem about a fire hydrant. Wish i had your writing talent. Enjoyed reading this one. |
