Seeking no escape from intoxicating, but ecstatic, feel of nothingness.

But one needs to ask,
Meaning it,
This same question she asked
To get the same answer she got.
“Nothing.”

In the same way
The roots ask the soil,
And the branches ask  the skies,
Seeking no escape from intoxicating,
But ecstatic, feel of nothingness.

Knowingly or unknowingly,
To escape from this simply disturbing,
But intoxicating, question,
One may resort to hide
Within the veils of
Power and richness,
Fame and social relevance,
Boasting or worshiping
Claiming or adoring,
Engaging or earning
Possessing or owning.

Such their engagements of
Prayers and possessions
Power and richness,
Actions and intoxication
Won’t do good to cover and fill
The real hole and hollowness of nothing
In which God and truth hide and sleep.


The true nothingness in and of the whole.
