No more oompf

nothing left

Didn't know how to continue

There was no spice

No urge to write

Wondered how this could be life

No idea what to call it

Whether to start anew

Or even talk about my point of view

Ones feeling like this are probably more than a few

Nothing new to write about

Maybe it is my own skill which I doubt

There is no law in writing to flout

But everything we have done

So nothing new for some

Maybe what we have already said is dumb

Possibly if we keep going we shall goof

Couldn't say anything more without any proof

Maybe I am a writer let on the loose

Or maybe the point I am trying to make is already moot

Or we all just need a boost

Probably best that I now let this rest

But we shall continue working with zest

Hopefully I haven't sounded too aloof

In what I have said there might be some sort of proof

That there is just no more oompf
