The Purity Of Nothingness

Kurt Philip Behm

Wrap your poem

around nothing

its bow mocked

in relief

Each word

but a gesture

of empty

deceit

 

Wrap your verse

in a vacuum

where all speech

is abhorred

The power

of emptiness

alone

— and unscored

    Another good write Kurt this one a little more obscure that others. Loved the wording and the intent. Poems gestures of deceit is a great line.
