Tattered Posted October 3, 2003 Report Posted October 3, 2003 (edited) Seeking inspiration Searching high and searching low Finding exaserbation Running out of new ways to go Trying to be creative If I could just unlock the door Everything's repetitive It's usless, what am I trying for? Edited October 3, 2003 by Tattered
Alaeha Posted October 3, 2003 Report Posted October 3, 2003 Hmm... I think the word you want on the third line is exasperation. Am I right? I like this. It pretty much sums up the feelings of writers block. That "Done to Death" sense...
Tattered Posted October 3, 2003 Author Report Posted October 3, 2003 Hahaha! you are SOO right, I was just sitting there thinking, what the HECK is that word. Lol. Oh well, sucks for me. Just another sign that I shouldn't be writing...
Alaeha Posted October 3, 2003 Report Posted October 3, 2003 Nah... you should be writing... It just means that you need to read more! No better way to improve one's spelling and vocabulary than by reading a couple hundred good books! *Hugs*
Peredhil Posted October 3, 2003 Report Posted October 3, 2003 You should write. Spelling, grammar, things like that can be taught or done by a computer. You have an inner vision, a way of looking at life with your heart and soul, and then expressing what you See that will never be duplicated by anyone or anything. Find your voice, and worry about spelling later - Alaeha was just offering a "nuts-n-bolts" spelling tip as an attempt to help. Oh - and I've felt like your poem, although I didn't say it so well.
Ayshela Posted October 3, 2003 Report Posted October 3, 2003 and exacerbation *almost* fits! "to make more violent, bitter, or severe" - i know *i* get pretty bitter and sometime self-directedly violent when severely blocked.
Tattered Posted October 3, 2003 Author Report Posted October 3, 2003 (edited) Ah, you guys are too much. Thanks for the constant support and concern. I would rather have someone critique me or correct my spelling, than write nothing at all Alaeha. And Ayshela, I too looked up the meaning and found it to be close to fustrating, so I used it! Hehehe, although I knew it was not quite the right word...I didn't want to labor over it... Peredhil, Ah shucks, you are always so kind. Thank you. You guys are my inspiration....Re: "nuts and bolts" I'd much rather drive a car that you all constructed than one I threw together... Edited October 3, 2003 by Tattered
