Something with Nothing By David Wilding (Monday 23rd September, 2009)
What does it mean?
Nothing to do, all day to do it
How can you do something with nothing?
Is time spent on nothing a zero?
Wasted if not productive?
How to know if you achieve
... if nothing is your goal
... and zero your result?
There is time
Time for nothing passes by
We spend a lot of something on nothing
Empty chairs are filled
Yet we do not see what we do
And feel the vacuum
Does it satisfy?
When will we learn?
Do we study the void?
Does darkness envelop all of us?
Will we go where nothing is ...
and nobody wants?
Can we further our cause ...
by the study of what is not?
Open your minds!
Show them you CARE
I will not DO with nothing
what is better with shape
I do not see now
But feel it will be
And know most of all
That the end,
the end is worth all the wait
