...Writer's Block...
The blank page, oh how it taunts me so.
It laughs at me, digging deep into my soul as it hinders all signs of originality and creativity.
And though I still sit in this dimly lit room, staring, thinking, waiting… waiting for my sure-to-come insanity to take me over and end all that was promised.
Words, words that are not good enough, words that are not worthy, words that are a mockery to the art. Why must I write these words, why does my mind emit these foul creatures? Where do they come from, and why are they here?
They mock also. If not the same but worse then the empty white slate, oh how it poisons the page.
Wasted ink, wasted paper, wasted time. Time spent writing, time spent reading, and time spent thinking, thinking up monstrosities that ruin a perfectly good roll.
Pity…

Yeah. I actually wrote this a long time ago.
yeah,
shesarabel's right. It's very cool, you did a great job on making ppl feel what you are feeling. Reading it made me feel like my mind was going mad! With every word I felt more and more like i was going crazy! I think my brain has been damaged with aggrivation just from reading it.
Ugg, i feel fustrated and my head still hurts. =(
Very cool. You can actually feel frustration of writers block.
"Words, words that are not good enough, words that are not worthy, words that are a mockery to the art." I like that a lot.
The fourth stanza bothers me a little. You just start out with "They mock also." It leaves the question, "What mocks?"
