Shipwreck

by  joanie

Word Count: 40
Summary: Feeling rather devoid of ideas at the moment and clutching at anything.




Drowning in a sea of adverbs,
buffeted by abstract nouns,
clinging onto adjectival
jetsam, lost in greens and browns,

themes and thoughts float off, elusive
in the waste of ebbing tide.
Oceans brimming over with
creativeness; at least I tried.
