The Nothing

Lightening comes but once a year
Lighting up the void so near
Sirens sing to deaf ears
The trolls they linger
With every tear
Voices come: they warn, exclaim
Beware, for the nothing is to blame
The reason we seek what we cannot find
Is to find some solace: some peace of mind.

The naught does attract a lot of unwarranted attention. Sincerely Moses
