I'm so angry I made myself
Sick
Hiccups in my stomach,
I'm frantic
This transformation sends me
To fits
As reality takes another hit...
I'm stuck in this stippler
Of apathy
A limbo of emotions I
Cannot stand
And with all this hidden
Energy
And this talented right
Hand
I still cannot create
Poetry
That is fit to satisfy
MY DEMAND
And Standards
Author notes
Yeah I know it's cliche' in that EVERYONE writes a poem like this at least once. But, I have had a lot of trouble with inspiration recently...
Please tell me what you think

I know the feeling
I have been hitting a roadblock of sorts myself. I want to go in a new direction but, I am not sure which one. I have to wait until the muse stirs me with a beginning I can work with.
This poem is unique in how the inspiration for it is lack of inspiration yet, it is a very enjoyable and expressive read. You vocalize your frustration in a way as to not sound immature or bitchy. You strike the middle of the two with a nice balance of "I'm not happy" and "I will get through". This may not be your best but, it is still a great read.
