The Blank Page

A blank page is quickly filled with self.
Blank, perhaps, it were better left.
Truth of emptiness is stronger by far
than words, fragile sentences
swiftly crushed in eternity's grip.

Words mock their writer
contorting ideas, separating
the inseparable.
Such artifice obscures
the soul.

Weak are words,
their walls must collapse.
For what is written
cannot be.

Power lies in the unwritten
unthought
unsaid
blank
