i can’t write…

• when i’m logged into vocal

i can’t write…

• if i’m sleepy and tired

i can’t write…

• with the tv on

• with the tv on

• with the tv on

{static}

i can’t write…

• on the wrong side of wired

i can’t write…

• to a schedule

• to a plan

i can’t write…

• if i’ve just had a feed

or

• on my second can

i can’t write…

• on my phone in my bed

or

• when it feels like i am dead

or

• when the nonsense leaves my head

i can’t write…

• a) if i know there is a background tab open

• b) if it’s a blank tab

• c) or deal with blank tabs

• d) bloody blank tabs

i can’t write…

• when i’ve had too much to drink

• when i haven’t had enough

i can’t write…

• if i’ve got a headache

or

• in a room full of people all trying to get their noise into my ears

i can’t write…

• if i’m dwelling on previously unresolved blank tab issues

i can’t write…

• if i try to be funny

• if i’m on the dunny

• if it’s only mildly sunny

• if i’m being a bunny

• if i’m worried about money

i can’t write…

• maybe because i don’t feel like it at the moment
