Urban Nothingness

A printer without cartridge.
A car without petrol.
A bikini in winter.
A mobile phone whose battery is dead.
A dozen wasted cans of Coke.
A chicken burger to a vegetarian.
A slice of pizza that slipped out of your hands and sat pretty on the road.
A millionaire you've never heard of before.
A genre of music undiscovered.
A man without a mission.
A movie lacking any semblance of a plot.
A slacker who convinces himself of his 'potential'.
A lot of untouched study material.
A thousand empty Microsoft Word documents.
Writer's block.

This idea works well in every context though it doesn't sound quite as profound when transplanted to rural nothingness.

A plough without bullocks
Loans that go unrepaid
Wells with dirty water
The sun's energy without a harness
Good fields with bad soil
Greed without a limit
Profits minus toil
Farmers without hope.

Dont worry about writer's block. It doesnt deserve such eloquent words. It kinda comes and goes when it chooses like that.
