Tiptoeing backwards

Feel the strain, when thought gets dry in the brain

To the outsider quite difficult to explain when trying to compose a quatrain

Try to get the mind in motion without causing to much commotion

Only the person with pen in hand will win the battle, write as planned.

Taking ones foot off the throttle ink gets dry in the bottle

Saunter off for a walk listen to that inner voice talk

Grope through language – No be deliberate, this will calm you not irritate

Concentrate give it time, you will write four lines poetically in rhythm and rhyme.
