Don't call it a block.

Obstruction might be more like it,

but that does connote a physical presence 

as opposed to an intangible idea 

that bottles the mind up like a cork

jammed into the reaches of the psyche.

How can you stop it?

Take a deep breath,

and go.

First word,

best word,

who cares

just let them be

let them order themselves

let meaning forge itself

from disparate pieces. 

Afterwards, sit back and glance 

at the words.

Now the work begins.
