THE WRITER'S BLOCK

By Crispulo Tappa


The Writer's Block

            Rivers run dry in summer
            and the river bed 
appears
            Where thoughts like rocks 
            and stones lay 
petrified
            Shaped by currents over 
            a number of writing 
years
             Gather each piece in a 
             zen-form as a master 
tried.

             Look around you when 
             the writer's block 
occurs
             Find some inspiration 
             in the thing that 
blurs
             Our minds are befogged
             by our biases and 
prejudices
             Limiting our minds to 
             explore ideas, in our one-
sidedness.

             The world is a big stage 
             for the great poet to 
explore
             There is no reason to whine,
             a writer's block is just a 
sore
             That needs to be healed,
             there is no reason to 
fail
             Write a prose, convert 
             it into poem, hear the 
hail

             Do go over your drafts stored   
             in your celfon's garbage 
bin
             They, too, are poems that 
             have been waiting to be 
written.
