I Cannot Write Today Poem by Jeff Wrubel

I Cannot Write Today

Rating: 5.0


Paralysis of the brain
Cortex to spine
Limbs hung like vine
An empty page

Paralysis of the heart
The blood is pooled
Veins dry and cool
Pen useless as a dart

Truth in a mouth of lies
Can't drink the wine
Not blood but turpentine
This is only an exercise

A blind hitchhiker prays
Out of gas on the highway
With the car in the driveway
For I cannot write today
