The Lament of the Blank Page

By crestfallen

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Damn this page so blank mocking me with its white, Daring me to try and write, to make my feelings light. Damn this absent thought That's gone away with the spoon, or maybe with the cow, who's gone to jump the moon. It's an octopus's' garden with plants, and grainy sand, This page can think of nothing it stills my eager hand. Oh where, oh where could my little thoughts be? Look into my soul, and maybe I'll see!
