Writer's Block
The eyes of memories
stare
From blank pages
expressions unwritten
Writer's block
not a block but a swirl
Hopes and dreams mixed
past pleasures and pain
Filling the gray sponge
dripping the excess poisons
Nerves deadened
present's touch unfelt
Save, don't save
the Solitaire game
Lost once again
Alone in the swirling winds.
