Write something.
Write something?
Yes, write.
What do I write?
Write whatever comes to your mind. Twisted mind.
Don't insult me! Why do I have to write? Why are you making me?
"Why?" Because!
Because what?
Because! Write because I said so.
Why do I have to listen to you! You have no right to command me to write!
Ha, but I do! Do have the right, that is.
What right?
The right!
The right?
Right! Stop writing right.
Don't tell me what to write! What gives you such a right?
Will you stop! You have given it (the right) to me! I am over you because you told me so!
I told you so? Lies! Why would I do such a thing?
Why? Because you wanted to write, twisted mind. Do you not remember? Your howls and whines; your sighs and cries! You begged, pleaded with me! "Come over, I beg, and command me! I have no will of my own, so become my will, I plead!" Those were your words.
Oh. I see. I might recall.
Yes, you might! All of a sudden, no less! Anyhow, stop writing.
What? Why should I stop? I wanted to write, no?
Fine! Do, don't! Either way, my job is done.
Is it?
It is.
Why is it?
Don't question me! It's done because you've written something.
Written something?
Wrote something.

I seriously love this, because I also struggle with this too. I also sometimes don't know what to write at times, and this also shows the flow and the momentum that shows at the end of it, you've already produced something without even realizing it. I think that this was a very good story because at times it is very difficult to find the inspiration to write, and this truly twisted my mind and showed me how difficult it can be to write at times. When you said that you wanted to write, and that you were howling and whining, that truly hit me because that is exactly what I want to do as well. I truly love to write and always have wanted to write ever since 8th grade. I love this poem because it uncovered how much I truly love to write and how there are many more people that are out there in the world, same age as me, who also love to do the exact same thing as well. The way you give both perspectives of the 2 characters you have written about truly is eye-opening and also it shows that anything and any topic can be used to write, and i think that it was truly an amazing story that shaped who a person who loves to write, and it includes many of us out in the world.
Thank you for the review. I'm glad you enjoyed it, and even more so that you found it relatable. It's reassuring to know that others struggle with the same thing. The reviews I've received have helped me get over my writer's block, so I'd say the piece has accomplished more than I initially intended. Thank you for sharing your thoughts.
I love this.
Pure and simple.
This perfectly encapsulates the mind of a writer in my eyes. I have had so many of these arguments with myself while sitting at my computer.
The fact that you wrote this out and I enjoyed it so much I laughed out loud really just goes to show how far relatability can take you. This is hardly a story yet it tells one so well.
The rhyme and reason flow so well like my own thoughts often do,
making terrible jokes like a top that is skewed.
Playing with words I only half comprehend,
What a wonderful story, I enjoyed it to no end.
He, he. Great job.
Thank you for the review. I'm glad you enjoyed it. Out of frustration with my writer's block, I quite literally wrote whatever came to mind and ended up arguing with myself until two distinct voices emerged. I posted it on the off chance that someone might relate to it, so I'm quite pleased to see that you did. And thank you for the little rhyme at the end; that was a lovely surprise.
