The same old words
Churned and shuffled
Conveying meanings new
 
Tired rusty ideas
Squeezed out till
It’s flat and stale
 
Working at creation
No, that’s not the word
Adaptation
 
Taking what’s out there
Clothing naked emotions
Making it new
 
Playing with fire
Feelings and storms
Puzzles and scenes
 
Making no headway
Writing on and on
Got to think fresh
 
Tear it all out
Take a clean page
Start over again.
