(Photo Inspiration--Unknown Photographer)
I've tried to write narratively today for a long time, but it is no use. I must concede. I have nothing to take its place, no substitute of any sort, not paragraphs, sentences, not even words. I am reduced to letters. I Google "fonts." This feels like a dangerous day. I could make mistakes.
I like this photograph, though. I think I could do something based on this.

My professor instructed me to look at the story in a different way.
When we began the term, my physics prof. looked like my father. Around midterm, he began combing his gray hair forward across his forehead and quit using hair oil. It was odd, but he was a nice fellow. Everyone was changing.
I don't think fonts is a bad place to start...at least you're not writing silly 'S' poems in the middle of the night

Something for your looking when you have time, etc. It is days and days and days worth.
It's a poem -- your writing today. Poems get to leave out all sorts of stuff and just leave bones behind -- the reader fills in the muscles and flesh and stuff.
It's a poem.
