  Mental Blocks...
Do these blocks resemble wooden blocks as played with by us as a child?

Are these blocks a wood fell on top o' my head? ...
T'will these blocks make a-me dead?

What is a mental block? ...
Is it a block a wood caught batween the ears?
Does this block a wood instill futured fears? ...

Why not just call it mental box?
You've heard of having your ears boxed...

Ya do know that if ya have ears boxed, that you have a hard time hearing?
The pain in your heard will be so unmanagable and uninduring...
That pain will be so sharp and heatful and searing.

Now that's what i'd call a mental block...
Only now i'd call that a painful mental box.

Mental block is when you have a hard time thinking clearly...
Boy!
That would sure make my day feel like death should be
coming to be near with my pain fast in towe.
This would make my mental progress come about at a real slow
rate and not move or go...

Mental block should be for the birds...
I can't imagine not working with my poetic words.
This seems at best unimaginable as well as completely absurds.

Mental block just stay away from me and my lifely clock...
No more mental block.

Begone!
No more...
Begone!

In my case, mental block seems another way of saying 'senior moment. We often say that, when something is forgotten, or ignored. I'm thinking that the amount of senior moments increase with age.............what was the question again? ? ? ? ? ?
lol

l-ot things I forget to do'

Good write, I salute!

Mental Block or Box do exist sometime, when we are too choosy in our lives. If the mind is allowed its legitimate freedom, perhaps we can cross these barriers. A thought provoking poem that makes one think twice about this undesirable block.
