Pick up the pen. Poise. Pause. Procrastinate.
Doubt and fear, crushing and inescapable.
A jumble of words and half formed ideas
Collide and clatter, shouting to be heard.
The pen hovers tentatively. Quivering.
Unblemished paper white and intimidating.
A drip, a jot, a scrawl, a squiggle. Something.
Slow and scratching, then gliding and gracious.
No longer virgin white. Tinted. Tainted.
Sibilance and semi-colons start to tell a story.
