Shut Up and Write
Sit yourself down and reach for the tower; Wipe off the dust and then turn on the power. Wait for it to load and then log yourself in, and Avoid Ms. Explorer's temptation to sin. Type up your headline and then! the first words... Throw out your first draft and feed the scrap to the birds. Start over.
Fly across the keyboard as fast as the memories flash from your head to the screen as fast as the emotions cycle through your body as fast as your muscles tense up and eyes well up as fast as the family fell apart (in the first place)
Sway in your seat and lean in a bit closer- Get face-to-face with the screen; KNOW you're its author! Take your position right over the backspace To challenge the faults and the flaws... Make the right plays. With you pretty blonde hair and crystal blue eyes, When you read it aloud, they'll all be so surprised Tomorrow.
Form your words carefully as you enforce your self-worth as you cross your 't's wisely as you finish your sentence as you choke out the last word (divorce)
