Blank pages,

filled mind,

no words.

Filled page,

draft one,

jargon,

erase.

Years pass,

no words,

unfinished work.

A spark,

words flow,

draft two,

masterpiece.

Edits,

jargon,

erase.

Start over,

new page,

stop.

Silence.

Flow

Flow

Flow.

Filled mind,

filled page,

draft three.

Edits,

no edits,

read,

reread,

jargon,

cut

cut

cut.

Try again,

just try.

Try.

Trying.

Write.

Write.

Write.

Writing.

Wrote.

Written.

Time passes,

breathe,

final draft.

Send.
