In A Stanza Or Two Poem by Her Name Is Taylor

In A Stanza Or Two

Rating: 5.0


I seem to trip and then I fall,
when I come near a pen
I dont know why it is it seems
the most confusing thing of all
to write me in a stanza or two
and the world seems to wait for me
to mention this secret:
admiration,
complication,
situation that I have put me through
and a person would test and judge
and say that i didnt show me enough
and I look again and again
but my problem never changed, so how could I
change me in a stanza or two
I dont want to trip over an exageration,
I cant stretch the truth
It seems though your words fall right into my lap
and a puzzle seems to form, because
I cant repeat them in a stanza or two
you cant put a heart into a box...
or a 300-word essay,
so, in that case, what exactly do I say?

Just whay you said...Writer's block is something that anyone who ever composed any form of creative writing, including a letter to a friend....has suffered from.If anyone tells you different...they are full of themselves...and just too full of hubris to admit it! If you are struggling to expound on an idea, or an existing poem...that sometimes has to do with your spectrum of diction...The more words you know...and know how to use them, and when...the more interesting, resplensent & detailed your work will be. Time, patience, reading others works, and of course mucho practice will alleviate that obstacle in fairly short order. The above poem about writing poems is commendable work. Keep reading, writing & empowering your command of diction/vocab.You have natural talent...and a vast range of potential.Tap it! F j R 2009
