The tomb of the unknown BLOG

You want to write something. You want to write it down. Get it out of your head. Like the last glob of toothpaste in the tube. It either just won't come out completely or it gets lost in the "daily grind". Still, you want to write it. But, then you find yourself overwhelmed by the traffic of others speaking their minds. Like standing among a room of strangers the first day at school, college or at some other social function. You want to speak. You have something to say. But, you are intimidated and distracted. Like being lost at sea unable to swim to shore. The current is so strong. Maybe you feel inferior or simply can't complete the thought. You want a beautiful symphony or a blooming radish rose, but all you can muster is a fart, a dud. The words fail to leave your lips and fingers like in a bad dream when you want to scream but the "world" won't let you. So, your words go unspoken...unwritten. This is the tomb of the unknown...the unwritten "blog". May it rest in peace...or find its way to the page.

And, for shits and giggles, for those familiar with the Change One Letter game...

Try turning GLOB into BLOG. Maybe then that kernel of thought will NOT go unwritten. Maybe this will jog your imagination.
