Vacuum:

Poem Artwork

 Vacuum:

 

1. Emptiness caused by absence-

An emptiness caused by somebody or something's absence or removal

  

2. Space empty of matter-

Physics a space completely empty of matter but not achievable in practice on Earth

 

 

Existing, at times am I, but not existing, caught in a void that bares not explanation.

A place where both day and night co- inhabit; a place void of nominal sensation.

Hopes fires are struck against a maddening wind…dwindling…dwindling again and again.

 

Solitary is the confinement; no crowds…no one…just the darkness behind the door.

Windowless is the room; chains remain coiled about the heart.

Faith remains the only key that will unlock this prison cell and release the heart once more.

A black man here in apt I moved to in Aug just lost his loving wife 2 days before Christmas. She died in middle ot night. She was sick but would not go to the dr. He is in the club we belong to now too. Many go through it and it isn't pleaant and never will be. I still miss my Tom so much but feel his spirit at all times too.

The key to unlocking the vacuum is your last line: but I know how you feel. Empty. Airless. Would you say a prayer for me? You are in mine ...

(((HUGS))) and love, Karla.
