    wanting ideas
    I turn to a fresh blank page
    stare into abyss

    White is the page
    Sparkling like the sky
    Moon and Venus rise

    the waxing crescent
    invites setting intentions
    embrace potential 🌒

    Out of ideas Bart?
    I have my own pages to fill.
    You are so cheeky!

    a galaxy of stars cries
    the crazy world speaks

    I love it — all the comments you got from the poem you never wrote; I may give it a try: my numbers have been declining lately :(
