I’ve been mentally blocked for weeks.

The air stagnant above the oven

as I wait for everything

bagels to prove a second time,

keeping hands busy keeps panic busy

creating scenarios of what I will do

when the writing returns.

Maybe I’ll eat with ink-dyed hands

instead of blank pages.

Maybe, by some miracle,

I won’t have any time

to bake at all.
