Sorting, wondering
trying to drag a story onto the page;
all the words separate and set adrift
after a weekend of wording and sorting
and a day of restoring my home ~
no longer any purchase in story or song
pausing in their flight to rest til tomorrow.
“I tell my students there is such a thing as ‘writer’s block’,
and they should respect it. It’s blocked because
it ought to be blocked, because you haven’t got it right now.”
~ Toni Morrison
