Faced with the blank page, Writer runs.
Confronting the white spaces, Writer enters.
Emptiness indicating gaps. The writer attempts to cross.
In theory this is “bridging” – the ability to construct a bridge.
In practice, Writer uses words like rope.
Without them he would fall.

Writer is compelled into absence.
Children skipping cracks, stuntmen leaping canyons.

Writer can’t escape.
