This will be my last post for awhile. I’m taking a little break; and I don’t know how long it will be…

Nothing There

Looking around on any given day
Surveying what human civilization
Has wrought, the consequence of
Our deepest philosophical thought

A tear forms in my eye
Spills and slides down my cheek
Raise my hand to wipe it away
But there’s nothing there…
