Nothing
I got nothing. Sat down to write a poem and I got nothing.
I tried to think of something but came up with nothing.
I have been told before not to make something out of nothing
but that doesn’t help when you got nothing. Don’t we all
want something when we got nothing? Something is better
than nothing. Right? I suppose nothing is pretty good
sometimes. I got nothing to worry about. That’s pretty good, right?
But writers don’t get paid for writing nothing, not that I am getting
paid for writing this but I sure wish I had something to post. Had
something yesterday and hopefully I will have something tomorrow,
but now, hmm, I got nothing. I got nothing for my birthday last
year and the same thing again this year. When asked what I got
for my birthday I said, “nothing”. To which the reply was, “ain’t
that something”. Yeah, it sure is something. So, dear reader, while
I still got nothing to post, here is a little something I call nothing.
