Poem About Writer's Block - Guitars Collage


I am struggling with a slump for writing new songs so I did an exercise in writing about being blocked. Here is the result:

Mystified
Stupefied
Simply stunted

Generation of ideas
Escapes my mind
Pouring over unsteady thoughts
Without anything brought

Blockade
Roadblock
Writer’s cramped

Purification of ideas
Escapes my mind
Pouring over unsteady thoughts
Without anything brought

The question begs when
Where have my thoughts been
It always starts with begun
And all I have to do is sung:
“All I have to do”

Mystified
Stupefied
Simply stunted

Generation of ideas
Escapes my mind
Pouring over unsteady thoughts
Without anything brought

The question begs when
Where have my thoughts been
It always starts with begun
And all I have to do is sung:
“All I have to do”

Mystified
Stupefied
Simply stunted

Generation of ideas
Escapes my mind
Pouring over unsteady thoughts
Without anything bought
Or sold – Or sold – Or sold

I did re-record "When the Stars Go Blue" cover after Tim Mcgraw's version. And my wonderful wife likes it so I am guessing I did pretty good on it. I did play and sing on two tracks to add a fullness to the recording using an R&B Vocal model. It gave it some reverb and sounds nice. A differing version of the song, of course.

I have something else to work on today so no guitar work or songwriting efforts for now.
