Nothing Lasts (National Poetry Writing Month 2026 #9)   Leave a comment

All things fall into the void
Destined to cease and disappear
Be it love, or poetry,
Nothing will last until the end.
"So why try?" "Why not?", I counter.
This art is here for us now.

Nihility (National Poetry Writing Month 2024 #23)   Leave a comment

Affix the mind on nothing
Using missing screws
Let your mind wander
Until it's finally lost
Drift, and cease to drift
In the never ending void
Forget your life's purpose
Discard all you hold dear
For in true nothingness
You will discover everything

Nothing To Do (National Poetry Writing Month 2018 #17)   Leave a comment

I’ve got to get home as fast as I can;
I’ve got a lot of nothing to do.
Close down my laptop as quick as I can;
I have so much nothing to do.
I do a lot of nothing when I get the chance;
It’s really quite hard to do.
I’m usually doing easy stuff like working,
But nothing is quite hard to do.
I getting quite good at doing so little
With all of the nothing I do
And so I must go, there’s no time to waste
I’ve got a lot of nothing to do.
