Mental Block

Sitting, pen twirling through fingers

Tap-a-tap-tapping on the scribbled desk below

Head in hands, hands on desk

Look up

Clock’s a-tick-ticking

Eyes blink-blink-blinking

Think-think-thinking

Can’t
Think
Mental
Block

Tick-Tock-Tick-Tock

Head snaps up

Pen hits page
Write-write-writing
Idea onto paper
Faster, faster, can’t stop now!
Hand is hurting
Mind is burning
Can’t Stop!
Can’t Stop!
Must stop!
Must stop!
NO!
Got to get it down
Got to get it done before

BRRRINNGGGG!!!
Time is up.
