writers block

and it stifles 

all that is pure

organic

i can't even bring in a plant

cause it attracts attention

that flies around

distracting

breaking my concentration

stifling all that is pure

organic

grays and blues 

muted 

(time to go green)

my voice not so vibrant

i can't think in color

when i'm surrounded by 

monochromatic patterns

that stifle

all that is pure

organic

rigid

they don't bend

break

you down

cloud your mind with

spreadsheets 

conference calls

mindless chit chat

around water coolers

word

out look

pretty dim

from where i sit

cause every thirty minutes

the light goes out

but if i don't get up

and get out 

they will keep trying

to turn off my shine

between the hours of 9 and 5
