Baptizing the Vacuum

What is the substance
of nothingness

With nothingness the substance
of thought

Where is the truth
in indifference

Apathetically frozen
when taught

How then to measure
reluctance

With action the villain
of time

Seeking to baptize
the vacuum

Where consonants hide
—from the rhyme

(Villanova Pennsylvania: February, 2023)
