Locked with the Block


The clock on the wall ticked,
The flock of birds sped past,
But the block of his never ceased.

He waged a lonely battle, with himself
Being caged, dearth of subtle thoughts.
The times were trying; his cries, feeble.

His mind was entangled in a spider's web;
His words were mangled at a low ebb
As he sat still, locked with the block.

His soul was in a state of peril.
The mind seemed to possess a lock
Which was, to his sorrow, a writer's block!





- Looks like I'm in a block too. I could'nt get the poem to exceed more than 4 paragraphs. Touche'! This, I think will be my last for the month. I'll come back with more words of wisdom (???) in April. Till then, wish you people good luck.

i ll tell u what..i am nt gona tell great blog n ol tht..cos ur problem seems to be the writers block..
i ll tell u one thing..it works fr me every single time..its like wen u r in a block..u have an idea wat to do bt then u feel u r nt doing justice to it..
the greatest fear is of emulating the past success and feel tht ur best blog is in the past..
jus jot down whatever u feel in those moments..make a draft..atleast u ll be happy tht u have done ur part rather than sit and lament over it..believe me lamenting doesnt work..it worsens the situation..jus put down all the line as drafts and then everyday go three lines a day and better them and within a matter of ten days u ll find tht u have a great post on ur hands..
try it out..it works..
