I don’t know what to say
I run out of ideas no inspiration
No chance to create new memories
The source is nearly exhausted
There was a time that writing is easy
Thoughts were running freely
Concepts are forming by itself
All I have to do is give them a place
I don’t believe in writer’s block
To me it doesn’t exist motivation
And inspiration are the keys
To set the locked muse free
Stagnant water gets murky
Before it dries out completely
I need a rain change of season
A new beginning another location
Nothing short of aspirations
Plenty enough to fuel a lifetime
But the itch has to be scratch
To satisfy the hungry mind
I want to run be out there
Taste the wind feel again
Close my eyes and commune
Be one with the nature
I’ve been in prison long enough
An exotic bird you cannot caged
I have to break free and fly once more
Staying here I will be dead…
Your poem moves me and speaks to me.
“I need a rain change of season
A new beginning another location.”
Beautifully stated.

There’s that itch thing. Sometimes simple thoughts provide the path less taken. The painful cage is one self inflicted.

Yes. Indeed. Which is while I have swam before, I still went snorkeling. When I have gone snorkeling, I smirked at night with manta rays. Of course, I’ve only jumped out of plane during the day. ..I still have my own things to work on.

Rhett? He suffered from: you always covet something you cannot have and infected Scarlet with it and by the end she was totally sick and there is no way back.

Who was inflected? She’s was chasing someone else. I think he saw her for what she was. Her infection was dramatic. Self imposed and maintained

Rhett is not lily-white either. I think Scarlet is misguided. But kudos for her for trying.

Here’s the idea:
Someone in the university faculty office was hungry, check ed the fridge and saw a banana and thought; hey, this will be great match for my self made granola and proceeded to eat it.
While eating, the owner of the banana – a colleague- who was murderous after his wife asked him for a divorce via text message arrived and upon seeing the other man eating his fruit years of experience ( at home with his siblings, in the playgrounds, locker rooms, and now his wife divorcing him for another) being at the losing end of custody battles came pouring down on him and he lost his control and attack the other man. The other man depending himself fought back and the owner of the banana ended up against the fireplace with his head pierced with a poker. The other man tried to wrestle the poker out and after a while he managed to free it from his colleague’s head. That was when the others found them: the owner of the banana lying dead and the other man poised above him holding a bloody poker.
How’s that?
