Authorial Angst Amid Untampered Pages

Authorial angst amid untampered pages ensues.

The Bright White Background highlights Blue Regulation Lines, but
nary a word is to be
found.

"Escaped they have! Alas the letters have run away!"
cries the
Bright White Background.

"Find them, bind them and construct them within our properly ruled maze!"
replies the
Blue Regulation Lines.

But the letters scatter to the turbulent winds of distraction,
fluttering as confetti
despite valiant attempts at
recovery.

Sadly the Bright White Background pulses in restless radiance behind the
overlapping
Blue Regulation Lines.

Sullenly the Blue Regulation Lines lurk in full view to entrap wayward passersby which resemble letters or punctuation.

And so the authorial angst amid untampered pages continues.

Written in frustration over the wiles of the loathsome entity lurking on the perimeter of my creativity. You know who I mean. Name him. Unleash your declaration of his identity. And in so doing, vanquish his strangle-hold on pen and paper. Expose the evil Writers Block, dark lord of ignominy.
