The exercise:

All my poems lately have been in the aabb rhyme scheme so I wanted to get some practice in on the abab scheme. Take a topic of your choice and go!

Mine:

Looking for the perfect beat,
Searching for just the right rhyme.
Why is this such a hard feat?
It's like I've become a mime.

How long until the words come?
Where is the button to push?
Overnight I've become dumb,
My brain says nothing but shush.

I guess it won't be today,
So there's no use in trying.
I can't find the words to say
The truth, no use in lying.
