Emptiness

I've tried to be enlightened.

I've tried to be not frightened of the darkness.

Emptiness because I'm sparkless and I'm not emitting or admitting.

Regardless of the insight I acquired, I'm getting old, tired and know that suffering's behind it.

And Nobody can find it.

It's there as a thought, an assumption from the retort.

This mind talk puts forth a report of blind talk.

It cannot see but still gives a description of what it could be.

So I can both confirm and deny this rich odyssey.
