Mo’s Prose – Day 352 / Mental Exercise

Day 352 – Saturday, April 29, 2017

I can’t tell what’s the cause of this,
My writer’s block immense
Whether it be empty-brain,
Or words not making sense…

But now I must consider this,
As time draws close to goal
Am I running out of words,
Or focus and control?

‘Cause when you’re in the thick of it,
Just right there in the middle
You hunker down, your focus sound,
And process you don’t fiddle

But as your goal looms closer still,
Your mind seems set to wonder
To think about the after then,
And futures you could ponder

I’m guessing it’s the latter here,
That discipline is waning
And coming up with new Mo news,
Is tricky when I’m straining

So shake it off, with mental cough,
No time to compromise
I’ll separate the wheat from chaff,
With mental exercise!
