VOIDED

         Vacuum

He opened the file

and there it sat

On an empty page,

a singular word perched
in limbo :

         'vacuum'

Floating …

Upper-left top

Of an otherwise

blank screen, 
a thought, but

    Oddly incomplete

He doubted it was his.

Yet no doubt it was.

It had to be!

If not...

Who else could have?

What's it mean?

....Drawing a blank?

.......Feeling drained?

..........an emptiness, perhaps.

It was a beginning and an end

With nothing in-between

What does it mean?

What does one do with it?

Whose words?

Whose brain?

Whose revery?
Was so vaccumous

As to suck us into

Filling the void
or had the word, itself,
true it's meaning
drained the page 
of it's intended
content
only 
to leave us
vacant and 
wondering?

Will mysteries never cease?
