Irony
I once had “writer’s block”
And couldn’t think of anything to write
So I went on Google
And asked for inspiration
But only got quotes instead
I once walked on a dock
and bought myself a kite
because a crazy man with a bugle
told me to do that on my vacation
and after my purchase the wind quickly fled
I once stayed up all night
Studying for a test I knew I’d fail
Because I wanted the confidence achieved from my studious ways
And I thought I did well because I took it easily the next day
Until I realized I bombed the whole thing
I was once told I was alright
For my body wasn’t frail
But I wouldn’t accept my family’s praise
Because my sanity slipped away
And what was left I held between my mind and its sling
