Reply To: Every now and then

Mostly, the problems with the poem have to do with grammar – not feeling and emotion – which is what poetry is all about. Please see my suggestions below…

every now and then

I stare at the blank (I stare at the blank page)

wondering off somewhere (I would take out "somewhere")

My mind tackling (My mind wrestling with – or something like that -knots)

Unknown knots i have there (knots that lock away my poetry… or something like that)
