In writing this poem, I'm feeling depleted,
No subject you'll find, nor is there one needed.
It doesn't have sorrow or passion or hate,
Just making words rhyme as I try to relate.

It has little meaning, just a word here and there,
No thoughts or real purpose that I'm trying to share.
Just some 'BS' and words that may rhyme,
Just kind of writin' and wastin' my time.

I guess I could say I'm doing something,
But in reality, I'm writin' 'bout nothing.
My paragraphs show it's written in verse,
If I put my mind to it, it'd surely be worse.

So if you're reading this poem
Act like you're doing something
If you're asked what you're reading,
Say, "It's really just NOTHING."

Toe, your "NOTHING" is SOMETHING else! ~ and that's a good thang!

I enjoy reading poems about poems! ~ and poets and about writing poetry.

I'm tucking this one away because your muse amused me.

I know a bit of nothing, myself.

Doesn't matter what you write...we, the people, are always enticed!
