Baptizing The Vacuum

Kurt Philip Behm

What is the substance

of nothingness

 

With nothingness the substance

of thought

 

Where is the truth

in indifference

 

Apathetically frozen

when taught

 

How then to measure

reluctance

 

With action the villain

of time

 

Seeking to baptize

the vacuum

 

Where consonants hide

—from the rhyme

 

(Villanova Pennsylvania: February, 2023)

    Many of our deepest enigmas fiercely and splendidly rendered into words, which of course are as ephemeral as the thoughts they so poorly reflect. Much appreciated!

    Thanks J
