Description: Writers' block from hell! >.<
Nothing I write is satisfactory, even mildly agreeable! I just hate it! I go back and read things I've previously written and they're so much better than what I'm grinding out right now! It all started this afternoon in creative writing class (of all places)! I couldn't do the assignment. I've written four poems already dealing with the subject and none of them are good enough! All I'm writing is piles of shit! >.<
Where am I? -------------------------------------------
This mind of mine is failing
The mirror is telling the truth
My stomach is growling
And I don't know what to do
I want to pick up that pen
But it bites at every touch
My thoughts stop halfway
And explode into nothing
All I ask is when
Will I continue to flush
Words out every day
And watch the ink flowing
But this hand of mine is failing
And you know I'm telling the truth
The being within me is growling
And I don't know what to do
Hey, cool! Writing about writers block automatically makes the block lose some of its grip. That seems common sense.
I don't know how good your creative writing class is? If you're bored or feel stifled in any way or bc you're blocked maybe you could talk to the professor about what you're experiencing and what to do.
After all, he's a writer and has no doubt experienced some of the same things you are experiencing.
(PLUS he gets paid LOTS to do this...make him earn his money).
Otherwise you might even consider changing classes to one that suits you better.
I ALSO wanted to say some of the imagery in this is d^*n good!So don't sell yourself short.
Just because you might FEEL that you are a bad writer does NOT necessarily mean you ARE one.
Feelings are not facts!
