Undefined need takes hold,
clinching pen and paper
with slow hands that try to
give Thought a chance to overtake.
Nothing comes but desire
Each moment wants something deeper.
Each stroke seeks the inspiration
hiding in the bushes out front.
What knocks instead
is the opportunity to say
something about nothing
and make it semi-permanent.
Nil and I make good compatriots.
Nil contains volumes beyond expression.
I express it ineptly
to set myself
apart
from
Nil.
