Bitter taste lingers,

clinging on for dearest life,

sweetness dilutes it.

This haiku above describes the last 2 weeks for me and the small writer’s block which I was experiencing; looming around consistently. With having all my wisdom teeth removed, constant headaches and pain related to the removal was effecting my creativity in various ways. This made writing incredibly difficult for me. Now that I’m nearly healed, the sweetness (creativity) is flowing back into me, and removing the bitter flavor (the writer’s block).
