Naught

 

What exactly is naught?

‘Nothingness’ as you may define,

It does appear quite taut,

In the mind of mine…

 

How do you see naught?

A dark cluster of lour,

Or a street with no passers,

Or a life extremely sour?

 

Well, for instance,

Naught might be nothing,

However an entity of its own,

And thus, another being…

 

I dwelled in naught,

And I mastered how to befriend him,

A very divine face,

He spoke in Norse,

And gave my mind quite a space,

And I left with him,

With absolutely no remorse.
