The most frustrating disease
A writer has to fight
Is when the hand will not respond
And refuses to write

The most aggravating curse
A word-artist can endure
Is when the mind just closes up
Like a vaulted door

Your fists will start to clench
Your teeth will start to grind
You'll think you have gone raving mad
And start to lose your mind

Temper will start to boil
And no matter what you do
Writer's block will have a strangling
Grip on you

The story behind this piece is actually pretty funny: I was taking this writing class over the summer, and first day we walk in, the teacher tells us to write a poem. That's it. "Write a poem". This is what came from that XD
