if there is meaning to nothingness,

it is to know it will not return you--

once you have become it.

having attained the singular ache of

boring through cycles of existence.

to finally see the feel of that emergence--

then no more.

to have come to a mountain, as to say this--

to have come to a sky, as to say this.

grating upon one another to acclamate that

phenomenal ache, in anticipation of nirvana.
