Can I Buy Extra Words

My brain is on holiday

Sure wish it would alert me

I'm cruising along having a ball

Then WHAM!!!

“Sorry, I'm on holiday”

Doesn't happen often to me

But when it does, I freak out

What if in my remaining years

I never write another poem

Yikes! What a calamity that would be

Still got lots to write about

I think I have... I know I have... I'm sure I have

But what happened???

Something is short circuiting my thought box

Write the first line, then scrap it

Write the first line, then scrap it

Write the first line, then scrap it

Help!!! Someone please tell me what to do

Have the “thought police” intervened

Have I exceeded my yearly word count already

It's only June!

Please oh great overseer of verboseness

If I have exceeded my limit

Can I buy extra words for the year

I'll pay big dollars...
