Blank Verse

My mind is blank, I cannot think,

my muse has gone astray

much like these lines bereft of ink,

all ideas been erased.

If only something would inspire

thoughts for some catchy verse;

evocative, emotive, or

amusing, sharp and terse.

But alas, my brain’s in neutral,

my synapses cease to snap.

Having taken pen from pocket,

I’ll just put the damned thing back!

Pete Stratford 17.6.11
