Having A Dry Spell

It seems that after

Thousands

Of words

Hundreds of thousands

Of expressions

My fount has

Finally

Dried up

Maybe it’s hormonal…

(cuz this happens)

Or

Maybe I’m depressed… and

Need some ice-cream

(cuz ice-cream always makes things better)

But

I just don’t feel like writing anything at all…

No thing inspires me

To expound upon it

Can’t even seem to write

A bad poem

Unless I count this one

And I don’t

But I do admit

It is bad

So I will re-start

This bad non-poem

And not talk about

Hormones or depression or ice-cream

(even tho ice-cream always makes things better)

I’ll not expound upon

How I am un-inspired

To ever again

Wax poetic…

But will instead merely query~

Has my fount

Truly

Dried up?
