Friday On Friday - "Insanity"


It’s gone... rooting and digging through the dust encrusted piles of pressed paper, like a shaking addict’s fingers through his own vomit, hoping to find one last undigested pill.

It’s lost... pretty, flowing words. A last living connection with dead memories, buried in the collapse of time.

It’s over... searching where there is no finding, again and again, repeating the insanity of what does not change.

It’s complete... unacceptable acceptance at the loss... of words, of control, of hope.  Yesterday is gone. Today is over. Tomorrow never promised.


So I write.

  5. I may not be the best at comprehension, but if you can write about writer's block in such a profound manner, I don't think you really suffer from it. But, then again, I may have missed the entire meaning of this because I can be really stupid like that.

  6. I don't know why, but I have this sudden urge to make you some milk and cookies and tell you you're going to be just fine. Very visceral stuff, Bill. I like it.

  7. Bill, I find the best time to write is when I have nothing to say. Because then instinct and imagination take over.
