Poem

I wrote this poem about not being able to write poems - enjoy:

I can't write a word
Not matter how I try
This is getting absurd
I think I might cry

The words escape me so
I wish I had a thought
My brain must be dough
A poem this is naught

So I'll move on from here
I give up for good  
I'll try again next year
Do you think I should?

@genericbeing 👏👏👏 well I think your poem about not knowing how to right a poem, was actually very good. I've started writing poems recently, we should team up and write a the best poem in the world. 😁

@genericbeing where do you get your inspiration from?? Or do you just let your mind speak?? You should write all theese in a special book, where you can keep them safe ❤

@Tinywhisper11 I published 13 books, I started pretty young, I'm like "half retired" now, I never published my poetry though, but thank you for the compliment. They just come off the top of my head, and I add the art to make them snazzy.

@Tinywhisper11 Idk about celebrity, I do okay with book royalties. I'm semi retired because I had a mental breakdown, not because I wanted to stop. Its why I'm on here lol.
