I wish to write a poem
An act I rarely do
Since life became a race
My brain aches
When I stretch for subject
No clue on what to rhyme
Not that I ever do
So today I try to break the fast
The doorbell rings
Every phone explodes
I knew it would occur
Toddler singing
With mother shouting
My limit has been reached
Too many sounds
Better luck next week
I tried and had a topic, which is now gone. Anybody else have that moment where they seclude themselves to write something. You know it’s going to drift away at the first distraction, so you focus. Then every noise that could possibly happen explodes outside the door. Maybe writers should aspire to buying a soundproof room. If it’s good enough for musicians and serial killers then it should be good enough for writers.





I’m forever looking for material to share on Worldz, but words seem to fail me…

Maybe going in without a plan and just rambling would be fun. Or take a character and make him do something odd.

I’m all for the soundproof room, this kind of thing happens all the time.

It would be perfect for writing, sleeping, blasting Metallica, handling witnesses, and whatever else I need quiet for. So hard to concentrate around here.

Noise canceling headphones with music or white noise playing

One of these days I’ll buy those. Either that or a mallet to smash the phone when it goes off for the 5th time in an hour. 😀

I can have a short attention span, so noise drives me nuts. Headphones work for me, as well.

I have an iPod with earbuds, but the toddler goes after them if he sees them. I’m part father/part toy. I’m surprised he’s let me work for the last hour.

Oh yes, the toddler years. It’s fun being a playground. 🙂

This is why I write to Queen and 50’s on 5. The music gets rid of the distraction.

I have Queen in my Pandora line-up. People around here tend to talk through it though. I need to find a water gun and squirt people with vinegar if they keep this up. That’ll teach them and possibly give them an urge to eat a salad.

I’d be lying if I said that was 100% joke. 80 joke, 20 strong consideration. Only the toddler will be safe.
