I Can't Write A Poem
January 5, 2012
I can't write a poem,
My hands won't dare touch,
That clean sheet of paper,
Standing in front of my completely blanked out mind,
With its blue and red stripes zooming across,
Around,
And up and down the page,
Causing my fragile head to spin,
Triggering me to fall off my chair,
And shake my head out of disorientation,
Right when I pick my butt back up off the floor,
While I sit back in that stupid chair,
That caused me to fall,
And then I look at that piece of paper that was once empty,
When I realize that it is full of silver scribbles about how,
I can't write a poem

Excellent work! I think it perfectly describes writer's block. I didn't catch any spelling or grammar mistakes, so great job!
