DEADENED MIND
The written word,doesn't need to be.
hung, Drawn altered
And quartered.
Unless it's written
in poets blood,
Then the perspective
drops with a thud.
From where I sat,
There's no need
to b negative.
I'm positive of that.
I've often thought
Remorsefully,
The written word
Never comes forcefully.
Crumbled paper,
Thrown across the floor.
As an empty mind,
Tries to write once more.
A dead end mind,
Stymies my right to write.
Tomorrow's another day,
I'll try again another night.
