The Things I Could Write About
Must I awake and wallow writer’s block?
For nothing was inspiring all of yesterday;
I looked and I found myself staring at a clock,
Though clucking nearby, eggs did white geese lay.
Maybe I shall write of warriors past
With muscles of marble, and will force of steel,
Or of beauty that my poems shall make last
In words alone, but still realistic and real;
Like the droppings of horses in neat little clumps,
Or the frozen bugs found on fresh produce.
I shall write of sausages, so pleasantly plump,
All good topics are these, I have no excuse,
So my face is shining and I give no care
As I dunk my head in a Green Eclair.
If anyone can find a common theme in this, I will be very impressed

This is such a fun poem! The rhythm could use a bit of work, as could the rhyme scheme, but I love it. The way it skips around so much fits it really well.
A common theme here could be:
'indecision' or
'boredom' or
'what everyone thinks about but never actually says anything when the randomly burst out laughing in front of their friends'...
that one was long...
This was pretty fantastic. It was truly an entertaining read! The rhythm was a bit wonky, but it was still really easy to read and I liked it. Good stuff!

I like nonsense poetry... i can actually understand it!!
ha! pretty good. it made me laugh, at least. i don't call it writer's block, though. i call it 'periods of absolutely no inspiration whatsoever'. because it's such a long sentence, my brain usually doesn't bother thinking it. then i forget that i have writers block and continue to write. oh, and one more piece of writer's block advice(though u really dont appear to need it...i hope im not wasting your time), don't try to force it! i just write down whatever good(aka: wacky) ideas i have and see if it works.
whew. my hands are tired
Hooray! Thanks for the reviews. I shall keep those in mind as I edit this poem and write more nonsense poetry.
That was such a fun poem! I actually really loved the randomness of it. It was a very original idea, and the topics within it were nicely chosen. Some where whimsical, others serious.
"In words alone, but still realistic and real:"
I would change either realistic or real to a different word, as they really mean the same thing and together they do not add anything new to the poem.
Well, good job!
You are a good writer. Not bad what you got here. I only found one mistake which is...
Or of beauty that my poems shall make last
In words alone, but still realistic and real;
You need some kind of punctionuation like a period which you need there anyway.
That is pretty much what i saw wrong with it. If you have any kind of questions feel free to PM me at anytime.

Hmmm, well I liked the theme, and I did like some of your mental images, however I kinda thought it was poorly written because of the lack of flow and the inconsistent rhyme scheme. I think it has the potential to be good, but I think it needs work.
That's truly remarkable. I loved it. I'm ashamed to say I'm not here to impress you, for I can find no common theme. I just loved reading it. One quick thing. In the first line, "Must I awake and wallow writer's block?" Do you mean wallow IN writer's block? That just kind of caught my attention. Seriously though, that's an awesome poem.
