It’s that time of year again when I have no idea what I’m going to write about. As always, I shall deal with this by writing about not knowing what to write about. Enjoy! A Verse About Nothing To Write About Each year it seems I hit this point, I’ve nothing left to say, Any…

Three days to go and the creative juices are drying up. Still, I’ve managed to bang out another one. Only two more to go! A Missing Muse The voice inside my head cries out, “Oh no! This cannot be!” “The words, the lines, those precious rhymes, Have all forsaken me.” Yet here I sit and…

So… here I am almost at the end of the month and I get tagged to work a couple of overnight shifts. I’m normally a Monday to Friday 0600-1400 worker, so the change is wreaking havoc with my brain. This of course made it problematic to focus on writing. Naturally, that problem became the focus…

For those of you who don’t know, the idea of the National Poetry Month Writing Challenge, is to write 30 poems in 30 days. That’s why all of these posts are headed with NaPoWriMo. Every time I do this, I hit days where I have absolutely no idea what to write. As you may have…
