Nothingness

Nothingness neither space nor time Between then and now, now and then What was no more, is now...begin Blank mind with no rhyme Where there is not anything definable Best by being here and being gone Being neither off nor on Nil, nada, maybe gaseous unrefinable. written August 4, 2021 especially for "The Void" Poetry Contest sponsored by Unseeking Seeker
