Lost


I was walking through an endless wood
Then at the edge of a trail I stood
I saw thousands of paths cutiing through the snow
And I had no idea which way to go.

Nor did I remember from where I had came
For all paths behind my back looked all the same
I looked up, with my cheeks drenched in frost
And  accepted that I was hoplessley lost.

I wondered around with time passing by
I slowly gazed up to the sky
Then I saw something I had never seen
Since when did the sky ever turn  green?

I began to ponder, in despair
Endlessly pacing,here and there
Sadly I sat on the stump of a tree
For a blizzard raged as far as the eye could see

 I Stepped off the stump and braved into the storm
Snowflakes raging down in a strange sort of form
As they dwindled around in an endless dance
They began to  waltz and prance

And suddenly, I woke from my sleep
And I was lying  in an empty creek
As I drudged  back on the lonesome trail
I  tried to see where I was, to no avail

I was walking across an endless wood
Then at the edge of the trail, I stood
I saw thousands of paths cutting thrugh the snow
And I had no idea which way to go

Writers Block


A vast, impenetrable wall begins to emerge

Every thought I seem to have is sudddenly purged

My mind begins to think rapidly, to no Avail,
And all my creativity begins to fail

My pencil taps furiously against my hand
But something blocks my mind like a mass of land
Fury begins to boil to the top of my mind
And I run out of the door, leaving my writing behind

 I search everywhere for some inspiration
 But nothing ever grabs the poetic sensation
 I try again to take a breath of fresh air
 But then nothing happens and I go back in despair


I beg to anyone to give a story
But none of the answers I ever got had any sort of glory
I begin to pace in fury, my mind full of steam
For my thoughts were blocked by an invisible wall, like a rock blocks a stream

I wonder if I stand upside down
Or do yoga in a place downtown
Or any other trick out of the writers book
To rid myself of the witers confused look

The Daydream

A long, cold, cloudy day
Gazing at the buildings far away
My thoughts begin to flow, dark and deep
And my eyes begin to droop into boundless sleep.

As I float in an endless cloud
With the voices in my mind ringing clear and loud
The world begins to look like an endless pond
And I see mountains far beyond

Flying through a cloud of dreams
Thousands of sights to be seen
Familiar faces, swirling around
Filling my heart with wonderful sounds

And oh, the strange thoughts my mind thinks
Flying pianos with soft drinks
A wooly mammoth sprouting katydids
And a playground full of Martian kids

And I, watching these things go by
See pirates dueling in the sky
Then I ponder why I think these things
As a midget T-Rex begins to sing

Then soon the mountains come closer by
And  I gasp as I cut through the sky
For these mountains are not mountains at all
They are candy mounds in an ice cream waterfall!

But then a noise cuts through my brain
A fist taps my desk like pounding rain
The teacher gives me a glaring eye
And I push myself up with a grunting sigh

A long cold cloudy day
Gazing at buildings far away
Though thoughts begin to flow, dark and deep
Fear prevents me from going back to sleep
