READER’S BLOCK: award winner
READER’S BLOCK: award winner



We hear of the writer’s block ,
But what of the reader’s?
Why not care for the fed, than
Only for the feeders?

Just as some are too fond of
Hearing but what they speak,
Others are addicted to
Writing, though it be weak.

A bad doctor can prolong
A patient’s stay in bed.
A bad writer can,likewise,
Kill reader’s joy instead!


* Written in abcb, 7-6-7-6 format.

* Awarded third prize in {item: 1197484}, “Humorous Poem Contest”, around the prompt question: “Is it possible to get reader's block?”
