Writer's Block

Blink. Blink. Blink.
The cursor taunts and torments you.
Blink. Blink. Blink.
"Haha! Loser," it chants.
Blink. Blink. Blink.
"You don't know what to write!"
Blink. Blink. Blink.
"You call yourself a writer?!"
Blink. Blink. Blink.
"You, a writer? No way in HELL man."
Blink. Blink. Blink.
Fingers poised at the keyboard,
Ready to pounce.
Blink. Blink. Blink.
Nothing comes.
No words.
No ideas.
Blink. Blink. Blink.
Swiftly, the mouse drifts.
Blink. Blink. Blink.
And with one quick click
Of that tiny red X,
The blinking ceases.
Defeated, yet again.
