And spreading forth wide its pure color white
Permeating the reaches of my mind
Like a cast net spread well over my thoughts
Dragging them through the subconscious ocean
Of personality adrift from shore
The blank page before me utters no word
Sounding an echo of silence within
My mind the waters tossed this way and that
It is my pen with its thin line of ink
That sends forth the hook to catch up my words
Tempting them to bite upon submerged lure
Reaching down into the depths of the deep
To hook free a word from the ominous
White net dragging away unanchored thoughts
Hook by hook line by line words are caught free
And set in ink upon the vast blank sheet
