Embrace the Void

                                                                               y
                                                                          l
                                                                      e
 the very essence of a thing                           e
     strangulated to shed the extraneous       r
                    released to            f l o a t        f
   without entity making us 
 dull or brittle
      strip away 
   the entirety of thought
 willingly forget 
          whether we ever flew or had feathers 
       to merge as no matter
 in the comforting void§
    needing nothing else 
~ resting perfectly unfinished ~
                      embrace the void
