Thirty Days

Thirty days
I’ve sat at the keyboard
attempting to put my voice on paper,
to write something,
anything, to be heard.
My shout translates to a whimper
and fingers become mute
while letters form unintelligible words
and nonsense dribbles from my digits.

Still, I continue to strike at keys
unwilling to relinquish
my emancipation.
