Writer's Block

It's late.

The only light comes from
the glowing screen of my computer
showing the same Word document
I opened five hours ago.

I write a sentence
rewrite it
reword it
rearrange it
and delete it.

I should be in bed.

But the page is still blank
and the blinking cursor mocks me.

I sigh, and prepare myself
for another sleepless night
spent battling my arch nemesis
the creature known as

Writer's Block.
