poem - nothingness

Preamble: The idea that nothingness came to know self in a moment of sadness, because creation lacked purpose is meant to be a heartbreaking. I attempt to imply that without a witness or a "purpose", an entire universe of creation amounts to “nothing”. 

nothingness

what can come to be, if it has no beginning or no end

how does one explain the ineffability of nothingness

nothing creates the perception that matter must have form

that nothingness must have substance

but what is form without the veil covering the illusion of form

in the absence of nothing there can only be nothingness

nothingness is the thought of existence before existence

contemplating why nothing had not yet come be

it is nothingness standing outside nothingness

experiencing the ecstasy of nothing's interaction with nothingness

it is nothingness experiencing the joy of self

seeking substantiation of nothingness' own spontaneous generation

a creation absent of the primordial atom

absent of chaos

absent of divine order

absent of nothingness' entire library of creation

for nothingness came to know self in a moment of sadness

when all that was had no purpose

when nothingness had yet to experience the nothing that came to be

thank you,

joseph pede
