i want to write

but i cannot

because there is a big block

upon my desk

not sure what it is made of

it is just there

sitting

nonchalantly

as if it owns the place

[can a rock sit nonchalantly? this one can. or so it seems]

 

i have tried writing around it

but it consumes all the space

and leaves little room

around the edges

for even a feeble scribble

or a nuanced piece of something or other

 

will it be there forever?

i hope not

because there is much writing in me

that needs to get out

i just don’t seem to know what it is right now.
