Nothing?
by Ewen Glass
Morning, afternoon, evening nothing,
nothing in details, nothing in pose or
great big lamentations on the internet
and rending of garments in T.J.Maxx,
nothing responses all to the tremendous
all of nothing.
But if nothing’s really nothing how
come it snowballs?
How come it feels like you're lying
when they ask what’s wrong
and you say
