Favorite Quote:
I arise in the morning torn between a desire to improve the world and a desire to enjoy the world. This makes it hard to plan the day.

I have nothing significant in my life
to write about on this blank page

Nothing special or tragic that put a stamp
on the timeline of events in my world

But that I should be thankful for
Shouldn't I?

But somehow I wish for more
Something to change my life and inspire

But then I lok at this piece
and I realize

I don't need death or love to write
when my inspiration is inspiration itself

The author's comments:
I could not think of anything to write, and I had nothing to do, so I was curled up staring at my wall thinking of what to write.

Now Cinderella don't you go to sleep, it's such a bitter form of refuge, oh don't you know the kingdom's under siege, and everbody needs you. - The Killers

I've had this feeling sometimes, too. It helps if you develop your ability to slip into other's mindsets... especially if you are trying to write about a particular thing. Think you could check out my poem sometime? It's called Sowing Poppies
