Emptiness


Empty

empty
doesn’t have to be
empty
like shallow,
man.
it could be
full,
complete,
perfect
emptiness,
like
zen-fucking
total emptiness,
which is really
total openness…
empty like
the
lonely
milk-weed pod
in frosty autumn,
empty like
the vast and spacious
mind
of true
liberation.

infinitely empty.

  2. You seem mad deppresed while you were writing this. It was really sad and about emptyness but the poem was not empty at all, it opened you and I really liked it.
