Empty Stuffing

Poem Artwork

Essentially, the Void is not empty --

It is good in producing a beautiful content.

The beautiful content is not a content,

As it contains nothing else but the Void.

 

Therefore, we have to tackle this properly

In order to avoid misunderstanding.

What does 'misunderstanding'

In such a context mean?

 

When you take the empty

As a face of Emptiness, but

The contented as a content,

You miss the way to get

The beautiful content in Void

But Emptiness in a rich content.

 

Thus you remain unaware that

The void is filled up with stuffing,

But the content represents the Void.

This is what is called 'the true mess'

Which brings embarrassment

On all of us, without exception.

It looks like a whole lot of nothing amounts to something. Either that or we have a mess (with my mind?).

Empty stuffing sounds like it needs filling, but not sure with what, if it wishes to remain empty. Wondering. . . John
