Daniel’s Lament
 
Jamie drove all night 
only to find herself a little bit too late.
Typewriters await; 
fingers bound to weights
that won’t let up.
I’ve lost my touch. 
What will I do?
 
Writers block my mind from the ideas
to take full shape to manuscript.
Ghosts of words I wrote 
haunt me through the
critics notes I find.
They’re all so kind for my first time.
 
I can’t make a boat again
finding that the world’s not flat but round.
 
Lightning strikes a match. 
Thunderous crowds
approach your house with 
torches flamed.
Failing ambition; 
fulfilling expectations of old.
Truth be told, I am scared.
 
Set ablaze to books that you are fond of
I’ll move on references gone.
One page I must write
‘Just get it done tonight so I can sleep.’
I’m on the brink
Is what I think

I can’t make a boat again
finding that the world’s not flat but round.

I can’t see you.
I won’t hear you.
I don’t need you.
I will write this book.

Words spit out like rain onto a page
that’s blank with rage
that’s not no more.
First one took a day.
The second one they say is the
hardest to write.
It’s been a fight. I’m almost there.

Pam took all Fred had finding
the things that made him happy
all must pass.
Hundred pages down
This book has turned my whole world around
I once was lost
But now am found.

I have made a boat again
finding that the world’s not flat but round.
