void Date: Saturday, 3rd January 2004 @ 12:38:30 AM AEST Topic: Sad Poetry Contributed By: me I’ve created a void slowly, I built it brick by dirt-brick I’ve been taking down reality piece by piece for some time erecting a mighty wall of nothingness around me but, oh poets of the world, I didn’t build a door, or window. I was meticulous, and didn’t leave a crack for my escape. So now, my own non-existence, the unreality of what I’m not, fills, crowds, suffocates this prison I built so well. My nothingness is safely fortified inside the void. And so, the army, or passage of time, or elements that will bring down my walls, will come to find nothing. For, only I am inside, and the void has overcome me. I have unbuilt my reality, so I could build my void. Oct 15/03 This poem is Copyright © me Important note: ALL POETRY ON THIS SITE IS COPYRIGHT.
