A lot of people don't know this,
But Writers' Block helps you write.
You're so flustered at first that you're
Primed and ready to write anything,
Anything that pops into your head...
And that's the time when inspiration comes,
As it streaks across the mind's horizon, there,
Suddenly revealed in all its glory and off you go,
Full speed, words tumbling like machine-gun fire,
Or a fantastic firework display in November.
Remember, every miracle's worth waiting for!
So hold that pen tightly, if you know what's good for you!
Or have your fingers above the QWERTY keyboard!
Because when inspiration comes, you'd better be quick!
Because a brand new creation's upon you, once again!
Oooooh, you lucky so-and-so! I don't half envy YOU!
