DAMN YOU WRITERS BLOCK!!!
Create a prose based on the following concept: (intended conceptually, not literally)
Writers block shows up rather regularly, interrupts us, is painful, irritating and often causes headaches. Occasionally indigestion. Playing off the common phrase "aunt flow," (menstruation), one could compare aunt flow (menstruation) and writers block (anti-flow). You can use this play on words and concept to fuel a rant, a comparison, whatever you please. But I think we all agree writers block is a vile creature that must be executed without mercy. May the rage commence!
Writer’s Block?
Oh!
You mean the perfect time to write.
That feeling when you don't want to do anything,
you want to pitch your Pilot G-2 across the room,
tear the page out,
and curl up until you remember you're not a fetus anymore.
So,
damn well do it.
Trudge your way through useless crap,
of word in the wrong tense
and more passive than a monk the sentences are.
You'll never show that shit to anybody,
like that photo of you on the swim team in high school.
But, hey,
that's where true writers are born,
on pages of nonstop diarrhea.
