Have faith in empty
things.

Trace my outline to the
night as I slowly
turn away.

I am not absent to your fingers.

As a void presses constant against
all that seeks to hold...

I am endless in your
touch.

Even as the night brings
empty things.

I'm glad to see a poem from you...this one, as all of yours, is very thougtfilled. "The Faith of Empty Things"....Just the title is poetry. And, I agree!

Brilliant!

Even with flashing spokes the wheel of life revolves around a void.

Again, I don't know how you do this. So few words evoke such feeling in me. Thank you for sharing so eloquently.

Form from Emptiness, Emptiness in Form ... Enjoyed your words Ericc. Do we grasp at emptiness when we grasp at each other? Still, it is comforting to know this apparent form is not alone, lol.

Paradoxically the Void longs to be filled and Form longs to find the Void ... Emptiness
