What to write when suddenly
A blank page stands in front of me!
It’s but to fill it – but with what?
Daily news both bleak and dreary
Fill the ear and bore into the eye
Via the overloaded drained, strained brain.
So much for daily TV.
Info of another kind, where black holes find themselves headlined –
Stupefying wonders to the likes of me,
Might fill my page ineffably,
Broadening a brooding mood of triviality
Which harm a sense of good
Half veiled and shrouded by the bad.
The blank, unused and unfilled paper,
Though computerized
And will end up in cyber skies,
Is something rich: a helping hand;
No caper to be joked about, ignored, and, and,..
It is a treasure ill-ignored,
A storehouse/keeper and procedure
To converse with you (emphasis on verse).
