Art of nothingness

If less is more,then nothing is infinite,

If relativity holds true, zero is pure might,

This state of nothingness, perfected to an art,

By Jalil-ul- Muzzafar, eternal in my heart,

 

I weigh a premie before and after death

Nothing changes on the scale and yet,

Gone is the rhythm, the loop, the thread

What was that nothingness holding it set.

 

If only I learn to  flow in my nothingness,

productivity heightens, possibilities limitless.

                  Alara

 

Poem dedicated to my grandfather Syed Jalil -ul- Muzzaffar who raised me.
