I liked the internal rhyme in your one-liner. Yes, it can be a "chore" to "conjure up a metaphor" but in the line of writing, it cane liven up our prose or poems.

I have trouble with rhyme.

I think you're going to win; two great one-liners. I love that cat and the words of the poem. I love all cats, even the big wild ones. There was this youtube show called, "Animals Behaving Badly" the naughty cats were my favorite. Best wishes in the contest.

Thanks again, amahra. I was lucky to stumble onto that picture. It's a good one.
Comment from Mama Baer
Ah, love this one liner, Paul! So very true! I am always amazed at the meaning a mere sentence can convey! Well done, well done! And the photo! I love it all.

You and me both, Paul, lol. I haven't found a foolproof way to overcome writer's block. What about you? Any tricks? Very concise poem about a common problem to all writers.

That's a tough one, Ted. I can usually come up with some ideas, but then I have a problem with that first line.

This was an excellent one-line poem. I sometimes suffer writer's block as well. I suppose we all do, from time to time. This captured the feeling perfectly and had a little rhyme, as well. Thanks for sharing!

Thanks, Jessi. I'd write a little more, but I'm having writer's block.
Comment from Spitfire
Love the unexpected internal rhyme of 'chore' and 'metaphor'. A near rhyme too with 'sometimes' and 'find'. The picture adds to the humor of your one line poem. Best of luck in the contest.

How lucky you were to find that picture--it fits perfectly. The one-line poem rings true. Sometime I find it quite a chore to start writing. Best wishes in the contest.

Thanks, leather. Sometimes, starting is the toughest part.
Comment from Mary Vigasin
A clever one line poem of a problem many of us have: writer's block!
Maybe we put unnecessary pressure on ourselves to come up with an idea.

Thanks, Mary. Most of the time I have an idea, but can't get started.

Paul,
I like your terrific one line poem.
Using chore and metaphor in this context defines writer's block to a T.
Excellent poem.
Good luck in the contest!
Blessings,
Cindy
