I seem to have misplaced my writer's edge.  Or, perhaps, something unseen, undetected is blocking my access to it (#writersblock).  Somewhere in my mind is a file cabinet aptly labeled "AWESOMESAUCE" with drawers so deep they are infinite (#opticalillusion #brucealmighty).  The never-ending folders within it form a comprehensive crater lake fluid in its organization of thoughts; a near abyss in its depths of concepts (#figuresofspeech).  I know there's a bountiful source of material somewhere in there, buy my access seems to be blocked - by what (#rhetoric)?

If I sit here and dissect the issue at hand (#comfortablynumb), can I find what it is that's missing so that I may write again?  Could a psychological avoidance of the raw emotions lurking in that pool of ideas be keeping me away from it?  Is it, maybe, a subconscious fear that the conceptual "moving on" has taken root and is planted like concrete (#againstmywill #ifearchange)?  Or, is it an intentional dismissal of the abyss (#ignoranceisbliss)?  Then again, could it be an unintentional, self-constructed wall to forego the labor-intensive process that developing a new writing style would entail (#ifearchange)?  Perhaps it is merely a temporary lack of passion for any given topic (#emptyhashtag #passioninwords)?

As I write about my newly discovered lack of anything to write about or drive me to creativity it occurs to me that the subconscious survival mechanisms, the intentional and unintentional blockades, the procrastination of necessary hard-work, and the varying and heavy-handed psychological barriers all likely work together to mask passion for indifference.  Can writer's block be deconstructed into one ingredient - indifference (#foodnetworkism)?  I wonder what other writers experience as they internalize this artistic struggle and life-work dilemma.
