Blackness.
Nothing.
How do you know if a hole exists
If you’ve never filled it?

You don’t,
But you know.
Somehow.
Because it has to be filled.

But with what?
If you knew you could fill the hole.
Empty no longer.

So you search.
Search.
For something that may not exist.

And if you find it?
What then?
Will you find something
Or will you lose it?
Don’t find it!
Keep looking
With your eyes tight shut.

But if you don’t know what you’re looking for
You may find it
By mistake.
The thing
To fill your emptiness.

An emptiness so full
It leaks.
The world is being flooded
With nothing.
By you.

Find the hole,
Fill the hole.
With what?
WITH WHAT?
It’s already full
Of nothing.

Like an empty bowl.
It is no less a bowl
Because it’s empty.
But what do you put in it?
The bowl must be filled.
With what?

Something.
Anything.
Nothing.

A worthless f___ing ornament.
