Writing, the quenched fire

Has been defeated by the waters of Distraction and Desire

What a fool

Was the author, who always thought there had to be a rule

For everything; though creativity has once touched her heart

Making her write from the start

Flames once flickered in the mind

Ideas of knights and castles

Once weren’t hassles

But behold, inspiration has come!

For the author to paint her kingdom

Armed with the pencil sharper than any sword

Fights her way through the Land of Discord

“I’ve had enough of the desires,” the author declares, “Enough of the distractions!”

She shall not give in to the attractions

Of the world

The writer’s ability has been unfurled!

By the author’s command, the fire flickers out

From the ashes; without a singe of doubt

The fire grows; rapidly spreading

Writing shall no longer be what the author is dreading!
