You're welcome. I tried with this photo to turn it into a spider-face, but oh well. As you can see, I did submit it. I had worked on this for a couple of hours -- blah. But, thank you, for using it.

A very well-written poem from your midnight inspiration. It is crucial to write those nagging phrases down as quickly as possible or it is lost forever. It never gets back as it was intended.

I enjoyed reading your poem. I think we can all relate to it. I wasn't keen on your repeating sick sick sick. Perhaps kick? Best wishes Jen.

It's really very frustrating isn't it, Brigitte?
However, you can train your mind to retain this seemingly lost inspirational information more frequently through word association. When you're still lucid, send a subliminal message to your brain--a word or phrase is usually sufficient enough--so when you awake, it is stuck in your head.
I experience adult night terrors so vividly realistic I feel as if I'm actually there. I keep a leather bound journal on the nightstand beside my bed so if one should happen to awaken me in the night (which is the case more often than not), I immediately jot down how I felt and what I experienced.
Things such as estimated time period and setting, styles of clothing (approximate era), place, mood, etc.
Things like this really assist you in remembering...IF you want to remember at all, that is.

The background color and the accompanying picture gave an eerie feeling to the readers which have reinforced and enhanced the message the author wanted to convey to the readers. The word choice which employed the sounds of of a ticking clock is effective. Thanks for sharing.

Yep, this is a great poem, Brigitte! I like the sick, nick, stick, click, quick because that does sound like the ticking of time and the pressing need to write, write, write. lol.

Very much enjoyed the delightfully unique poem. :)

Hi Brigitte,
I enjoyed reading your poem. Anyone who has dabbled in writing poetry will identify with the feelings described in your poem. I must confess that I too suffer from the same predicament. Nice poem!

I enjoyed your fun poem Brigitte. I like the repeated rhyming words. They add a lot to the flow & they sound great when read aloud. Your poem makes a lot of sense, too. I have heard that many writers keep paper/pen on their nightstands for just these moments. Thanks for sharing. Jan

    Thank you for this lovely review and taking the time to read. I am now keeping a journal by the bed and hope I can decipher the scribbles when I wake up.

    Have a great weekend.

Yes, those annoying cobwebs do get in the way of our creative process sometimes, resulting in the demise of some creative seedlings. But there's always tomorrow. Just keep trying, like the rest of us! Thanks for sharing.
