Perfumes of Emptiness


We talk about the different perfumes of Emptiness.
In a vain attempt to name the Nameless.

We are moved to call it Peace or Understanding.
Or in reverence say it is Silence and Knowing.

We put those words in Caps.
To express the beauty and immediacy.

And all those words fail
as This defies description.

A friend suggested yesterday we call it all Crap.
So we do not get confused by all those
lofty labels.


Does it matter how we call It?

Is it an It?

Do we need to give a name to know
what we are?
