Purity
Stark white innocence
Unpolluted by the careless thoughts of an imbecile

Unmarked
No judgements formed
No rambling jumbled thoughtless sentiment revealed

Remarkable
Like fresh snow
Crisp and undisturbed flowing cold unsullied waves

Ruined
Cheap and tawdry
Slashed and tarnished ravaged beautiful blank page

Nice,

I'm trying to think of where I place myself in this poem? Probably somewhere like "Remarkably Ruined" lol

Thanks Dale

Thank you for your comments. This is my lament for my own writers block and the resulting torture committed upon a perfectly innocent blank page (or screen).

I don't think you have to worry about the results of your own attempts! I've been reading you for some time now.

Thanks again!

Been there - still am in a way. Plenty to write, no focus to do it. I'm hoping writing through it will achieve something.

I love this poem. The only thing I would say is the words 'unmarked' and 'remarkable' hit me as a little bit repetitive with the 'mark' in them and as these words are such important ones as they head up the verse I would maybe change one of them. But, again, I loved this poem.
