I'm Interested In.....
This Thing... " Writers' Block "...

But Let Me Just STRESS...
This Thing I AIN'T Got... !!!

I'm Intrigued By This View...
If You're In... Writers Shoes...

This Writers' Block PROBLEM...
Could... Happen To You... !!!

This May Be Because...
What You Write ISN'T True... !!!

I'm NOT Having A Pop...
But Feel Somewhat Confused... ???

How Come... Journalists...
DON'T Get Writers' Block TOO... !?!

Cos' They CLAIM To Write FACTS...
... When Reporting The News...

SEE... FACTS And TRUTH...
Are In View... EVERYDAY... !!!

REALITY Gives ME...
... PLENTY To Say... !!!!!

While FICTIONAL NONSENSE...
Is... MOST POETS Way...

POOR Grammar From SLAMMERS...
Who Write... " Mini - Plays "...

But... EVEN Some Plays...
Are LOCKED... "Well Away"...
In Places Like... "Bootle"...

HIDDEN... WELL AWAY...
From...... Public Perusal... !!!!!

My Poetry Style Is NEVER The USUAL...
RESISTANCE To This For CERTAIN IS FUTILE... !!!

I Guess Some Would Say...
That... Subjects I Pick...
Make Some People SICK... !!!

But That's Cos' The TRUTH...
Makes People RUN QUICK...
To GOOD Ol'... Writers Block... !!!

Well I'm READY To ROCK... !!!
NOT Like Haley But DAILY...
And I'm NOT Gonna Stop... !!!

The Clock... TIC' TOC'............................... ................
Until I'm... At The TOP...
The TOP of WHAT I Hear You Ask...
The TOP of What's REAL...
And Then OPEN The Flask... !!!!

Cos' Poetic NONSENSE...
NEEDS Tape And A Mask... !!!

The Truth Is SO VAST...
There's NO NEED To Ask...
A Preacher Or Teacher...
For... Writers' Block Class... !!!

UNLESS You're Like Them...
And Enjoy Multi-Tasks...
Like Finding A Farrago Slam...
To.... KISS ****.... !!!!!

For... FICTIONAL Poems...
To Get An... " A - Pass "...

But How Would You Feel...
If Your Efforts Were SHUNNED... ?
Cos'... Your Composition...
WASN'T Voted BEST ONE...
  
That Style's Being Done...
By Almost... EVERYONE... !!!

While TRUTH Like My Words...
Just SHINE Like The SUN... !!!

WITHOUT... Writers' Block... !!!

Cos' Poems I Write...
Use Logic Like... SPOCK... !!!

This IS How I Feel...
Ask Rappers The Deal...
Cos' Writing For Them...
Is An Everyday Meal... !!!

Rappers... ARE POETS...
Who Know How To FLOW IT... !!!

And Most Would Get SHOCKED...
By This Phrase... " Writers' Block "... !?!

Check Out The MIXTAPES'...
The Execs' HAVEN'T GOT... !!!!!

Oh And Just For Performers...
Who Like To... PERFORM...

These Emcees Appear...
To Have Words In Their Head... !!!
Like Brewers Have BEER... !!!

So DON'T Think You're Cool...
Cos' You've Got A Few...
of Your Words In Your Head...

Cos' ANY Good Rapper...
When They REPRESENT...
Will Get You A Part...
In The NEW... " LIVING DEAD "... !!!!!

OKAY... ENOUGH Said.

Poets RECITE Or Read To The Mic'... !!!
STOP Putting On... " Acts "...
It's NOT... " OPENING NIGHT "... !!!

That's Just MY VIEW...
It... May Not Be Right... ???
But ARGUE Your Corner...
With LOGIC... Alright... !!!

Cos' When I Reply...
You Might Get A FRIGHT... !!!
Cos' My Point of View...
Comes From FACTUAL INSIGHT... !!!!!

So As This Poem Transcends...
Try Writing What's REAL...
DON'T Try To... "Conceal"...
What You FEEL In Your Words...

Your Words Should Be YOU...
Cos' In You Is What's TRUE... !!!

LOVE What You've Got...
And Then This Might STOP... ???

The Chances of Getting...
This Thing.....

... " WRITERS' BLOCK "...
As said, not something I struggle with ...
