I Got Nothin'

I got nothin'.
Absolutely nothin'.
I don't wanna write about bike accidents or car accidents or accidents of the pee-pee kind.
I don't wanna write about stealing candy from the drug store or egging the neighbors or smoking in the backyard.
I don't wanna write about throwing crabapples at cars from my friend's roof or hiding from the police or skipping school to ride a bus downtown.
No stories about capturing baby raccoons and bringing them home or squeezing woodticks on the dog.
No stories about snowball fights ending in bloody noses or farting on siblings on long car trips or fish that died or escaped pet iguanas.
I just don't wanna write.
I can't think of nothin'.
Cause I got nothin'.
Nothin' at all.

  4. Thank you for, once again, voicing my thoughts :) I skipped Friday because I did not have the artistic talent to put my nothings into such a wonderful something!
