Question: Would this be a sign of writers block!?
A description of my creativity today!.(or lack thereof)

Not even one dis-interested breeze
Gives pause to play with brittle leaves
Which lay upon the cracked cement
Already scorched from the scrutiny
Of the sun as it defies the meager shade
To peek from where it hides in shame
The weeds that did not bow
To the mower as it growled
Now stand in silent salute
As the distant sound of lazy cars
Draw near with sudden roar and rape
The silence of any remnants of dignity
