Lighthearted laughs.

............................

Verses I beg to spill from my quill, nary an answer do I hear

Only silence answers my plea, laughing**they mock and jeer

Characters argue in my head, demanding better dialogue

Alliteration always amuses, as does absurd anecdotal artistry

Lamenting the tragedy of writer’s block (or maybe lack)

.......

Acrostic
