...Apple Agony...

I feel like a piece of wood these days...

...sun burnt and brain dead...

Trillion attempts at coming up with an ingenious work of writing, or any writing what-so-over, have failed miserably...

Some fans knocked at the door of my blog recently and challenged me to post something new. Full of enthusiasm and ego I did accept it, however I spent the entire afternoon avoiding my pc. The mac... all white and perfect...with the heart of an apple...comfortably seated in the corner of my room on a contrasting cushion, stared at me reminding me that I needed to write, while I shamelessly loitered around..guiltless...and still picking on my brain to begin thinking...

When I was tired of watching the white contraption from the corner of my eye, I decided to give it another shot. Energetic and full of purpose, I sat down, switched it on, and before I could pen anything down my traitor mind slipped yet again...for all I could think of was what I would do after I finished...sleep..cook..eat..watch some tv..ah bliss! for some reason the uneducated devil in me had taken over in all..

no scope for ideas...
no ideas to put into words...
no words to form sentences..
no sentences to convey a message..
no messages moulded into writing..
no writing worth reading..
no reading that entertained..
no entertainment that killed time..
no time for inspiration..
no inspiration within scope..
and...no scope for ideas..

Maybe it was the long weekend...maybe I was being too lethargic to create something new or maybe...just maybe I was simply being utterly and completely lazy..lazy..a word that I wished not to have in my dictionary...but it had found it's way around somehow...cleverly..quietly..and suddenly!

So I concluded that it was definitely a vicious circle...and I'd come to the end of the circle soon...why stress over it...why force myself..it'll pass...it was bound to...it HAD to..all I needed was to stop going round and round..

...errr....I gave up and munched away on my apple...
