Writer’s Block ~ NaPoWriMo #28

By Kat Myrman

Writer’s Block

blame it on the muse when every syllable
is out of sync and rhymes are…hey, what
rhymes with purple? anybody?…ANYBODY?!
when nothing feels inspiring, and prompts
are falling flat; you know what I’m talking
about; you make it look so easy, perfection,
just like that; there are days when I hesitate
to call myself a poet, I’m an impostor and I
know it, head swimming with words, it’s
absurd I let it get to me, a word is just a rose,
oh I suppose there’s nothing left to do but
walk it off; i’ll chalk it up to my imaginary
friend, I hate it when her voice is silent

For NaPoWriMo 2019 Prompt #28: try your hand at a meta-poem. (A poem about poetry, a poem that is somehow aware of itself as a thing made of letters and words.)
