UP AGAINST A WALL

Some days I just sit here thinking, With the keyboard I am just tinkering, The paper plain, white, and bare, Of course you knew I would say stare (at it). The words just aren't coming, and I am fraught, With what I would call "the writers block," I have been told that what is best, is just to     sit back, and have a rest. Over I go to my favourite chair, I plop myself in, have a look and stare, Then I reach way over with one hand, Towards the rickety, old, table nightstand. I grab the bottle, a bottle called Jack (Daniels that is), Twist off the cap, gulp, and throw one back. In just a few minutes I won't care, What there is beyond my chair. My eyes will tear, and the pages will blur, The cat comes over - rubs me with his fur, Pretty soon I can see that this little ditty, In all it's worth is pretty shitty. The bottle falls off, and over I bend, This was the beginning, and now it's the end! Thank you.
