the emptiness


in a spot not so different
thoughts and memories
right here doesn't matter
who sat across the table then
no one does now
as night creeps away
from a thinker too much
on the mind studder
step to the door
it's closed and there's no sign
that help is on the way
off the point which was emptiness
in a spot so familiar
should have made it a point
to make more friends
they were here once
the tables had to be pushed together
to make them bigger
had to wait your turn to speak
so much to hear and how much went unsaid
doesn't matter who filled the void then
it exists now and a choice
sacrifice for the craft
not necessarily helping it along
in fact in someways impeding a flow
of new ideas and concepts...
