I’m a block head, yes, it’s true! Doesn’t
take much.. to make me feel unglued! It
will only take a while...before I’ll not be
able to smile. I’m easily annoyed.. at all
that goes amiss and irritates....... so ill,
an Obsessive Compulsive, it’s just plain
horrific! Don’t know how to overcome,
this is quite the conundrum. I like to be
specific----- life is not a hat trick. I’d be
carefree if I knew how to be.I need feel
centered to gather all my senses, so I’m
always creating this... mental block that
I can’t seem to stop building and...I try!

Ugh...this was hard and I only tried to make a block! I went through a whole therapy process as I was putting this together in Word & because I use a Calligraphy Font, my poem was a square block in my Word & then when I pasted it here it wasn't a block. I'm totally spent after putting this together so I had to add periods to try to bring the shape back! 
Now I'm even more bedazzled by the shape poets I see here on AP! It takes a special kind of genius to create this amazing form. Well...my shape poem is what it is. Just trying was a challenging & rewarding, yet, difficult look inside my heart and brain! Thanks for running this Contest. I'm going to be looking forward to seeing the entries. 
Php 4:7 And the peace of Yah, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through The Christ Yahshua.
8 Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things. {honest: or, venerable}

You R so SWEET!
Beautiful block indeed! 
It's not a perfect square, but it's as close as I could get it. I guess I've got a mental Block! 
Thanks for your encouraging comments & understanding! You're going to be very successful in your life! It takes brilliance to recognize brilliance...but it my case you're just being very kind!

I'm very proud of you!
Until you try & know what you are up against - oft we take for granted what we see!
Your effort is (hopefully) the first of more achievements that will add flair to your poetry.
This was wonderful!

Thanks!
This isn't my first shape poem, but it was more involved than the first! So feeble, but a wonderful experience nonetheless! Thanks for your encouragement. I'm sure this won't place in the Contest, but it certainly was an eye opener!
