Creative Block It’s happening, that time of year, A full week yet to go. My inspiration has dried up, What will I write? Oh no! This happens every year to me, Not sure what I should write. If I can’t get my head to work, There’ll be no post tonight. Somehow the harder that I…

How Was Your Day? Another day a crisis fixed, A dozen more to go. By the time they’re all resolved, Two dozen more I know. I run and run and work and swear, The problems multiply. Some days I want to rage or drink, Some days just want to cry. I know we’re all in…

Overcoming The Noise. I cannot think, I cannot hear, The voices in my head. They try to speak and to be heard, Don’t know just what they said. There’s poetry that I can’t hear, It’s lost in all this noise. The words are lost beyond recall, l’ve lost so many joys. Voices within and more…
