Time Was...

Time Was...

A Poem by Michael Stevens
"

I don't wanna!

"
Time was, when I could write more than a few lines,

a pages-long story, or a longer-a*s poem, but those times


are over, I guess, my concentration has reached its low ebb,

or at least I hope it has, my brain lately is filled with cobwebs.


To be fair, I've never been able to sit still long enough to write a book,

every ounce of my concentration and mental pain is what that took.


I did manage one short one, but I still wanted to end it after page three.

But now I can't even write three pages, what in the hell's wrong with me?


See, even with this poem, I'm looking for the exit door,

It should be twice as long, but I don't want to write any----!
