Writer's block?
No inspiration
What am I to do?
A writer without a drive
A pen without any ink left
That isn't right!
Blocked
Locked

Beside you a pulsar is like a sorry matchstick ...

To be where I have ended up?
I ask, ‘Is it real...

Ottava Riva - NaPoWriMo Day 8
Another attempt at my paternal tongue.
Un altro tentativo di mia lingua paterna.
And though I beam with pride as I'm learning.
E anche se mi fascio con orgoglio, come sto imparando.
I'm aware that translated, the metre is wrong.
Sono consapevole del fatto che tradotto, lo strumento è sbagliato.
But this language pulsates to my yearning.
Ma questo linguaggio puls...
