Look at nothing cupped in my hands, this, that cannot be seen nor felt— an unfilled space that contains all, the nameless state of nothing. Peer at the molecules of light, that spin off into the distant void— mankind in the lines of my palms, echoes the scream of nothing. Unable to shape or contain this, the ambiguous state of nothing— sifts through my fingers that cling, coalescing at the point of nothing. Look at my aching hands, see the dark void that lingers— what was and never been, that means all and nothing. -wordancer "Come...dance with me, into my world of words." |

You do have an interesting way of thinking about things. My first reaction to this is that sometimes we do sense nothingness. (Does this make me a nihilist?) When we are overwhelmed by life, sometimes we retreat into feeling...nothing. If we are blinded by love, perhaps we see nothing.  You have set my mind off in odd directions today. To love another person is to see the face of God. - Les Miserables Marilyn |

Also.... if everything is nothing, then is nothing everything? Like Marilyn says, you jump-start our thoughts in different directions! Enjoyed, as usual, Wordancer! Lary |

To say that I have often thought or felt this would be an understatement to the immensity of your words...a true gift, given....thank you... |

Thank you all for your wonderful comments, this was my first poem that I did about nothing last year, one of several in the search of nothing. :D WO |
