Sometimes
when creativity stalls,
it helps to take a break .
A break in routine,
a coffee break
break the mold.
Break a leg—
not literally—
however,
now that I thought of it,
a broken bone
is likely to trigger
some creative language.
Go for a hike,
call an old friend,
get a pedicure,
go skydiving.
So, if there’s a day
when my creative juices
run slow
or just don’t flow—
please,
give me a break.
