writing is a lonely business


writing is a lonely business

 

 

the hum of the power washer three houses away is my only companion today.....

the dog asleep....unstirred by the sound..

as i sit here and peddle my wares online to strangers.....i am lonely....and unplagued by thought....

so much that the emptiness is sickening....

the blank page awaits...but i have naught to offer..

unless of course Mr. Riordan seeks me to claim the life of one of his characters....i would accept...

muse.....under M in the yellow pages.....if not there.....then where....

how can i feel again...

bitter tasting hand without a pen....

empty and resound the loneliness surrounds.....

but wait the Archaeopteryx sleeps on a cot upstairs and now she has someone who seeks her.....

Ray Bradbury....the only one who seems to care at this moment if i am whole or break into pieces.....each word on the page....guidance....a cure for this day...
