#13In my hand I hold a chip.
I skip to the kitchen to grab some dip.
When I return with my liquid cheese,
I drop to my knees and cry out 'Jeez!'
For much to my dismay,
My cat is in my bag of Frito Lay.

#14Wasn't there a similar article not too long ago which said go for a run/jog? Not a whole lot of real advice here other than an interesting suggestion to the age old advice I've heard my whole life: "Stuck? Take a break and do something different"

#15I was feeling stuck ~So~ I wrote a poem to help I still feel stuck though
Because you did 5-8-5!
That restriction can't actually be adhered to in the right spirit outside the Japanese language, and isn't 100% adhered to even in that language.

#16You don't just.. stop field measurements. They take months to years in preparation, are usually a group effort and very expensive, and if there is a gap in the data you will never be able to get that back. I mean.. automate the thing and then go sit in the shade and write poetry while you supervise, sure. But stop? Whut?
Yes it means end the project, hand in your resignation and then make a haiku.

#17Wish I "got" poetry. Spent 4 years studying literature and got a degree in writing, and throughout it all poetry just annoyed me. I think I made a genuine effort but I couldn't get over feelings of "get to the point" or "so what?" Everything from Byron to Billy Collins. Doesn't do anything for me.

#18Some people, when confronted
with a problem, think “I know —
I’ll write a poem.”
Now they have two problems.
Some poets, when stuck
writer-blocking, think “I know —
I’ll write a poem.”
Now they do not have two poems.
