Hmmm

Hmmm
What does it mean?
Everything?
And Nothing at all
Curiosity?
And apathy

Are you certain?
For I am not

Hmmm
It washes like a wave
Reaching
And then retreating
Connecting
And devastating

Do you adore its endlessness?
For I do not

Hmmm
Like a shape shifting cloud
Seeing
And unseeing
Being
But unbeing

Do you believe it was ever really there at all?
For I do not

Hmmm
It’s dark and heavy now
Terrorising
And terrifying
Vast
And vacant

Do you delight in its lingering?
For I do not

I hunt in the muds for words that make sense
But all I can spit out
In floods
That choke
Is that sound
Of Everything
And Nothing at all
The sum of my broken

Hmmm
