you sit there

don't worry I have worse stuff not yet in the bin .

You sit there

pen and paper in hand

wating for something to go ping

your there 3 or 4 minutes

then something goes ping

the washing machines just finished

so long writing goodbye.

The laundry piling up in my room, the poems not being written... I should at least do the laundry. Maybe tomorrow.

many thanks but why not leave the washing until the day after the day after that and so on .

[Carrie]

Nice short funny poem, interruptions inferring with creative writing.

[yorkie]

Waiting for a eureka moment. Doesn’t always come does it, when writing:) I enjoyed the washing machine humour here yorkie. Happy new year to you.

i thankyou for your kind words
in these days of darkness they are welcome.

I like the everyday humor here—the “ping” moment is subtle but perfectly captures how small interruptions shape our writing life. Short, simple, and funny.
