Subject: the king of nothing--for emily dickinson

i proudly
herald myself
king of nothing;
i am nothing,
what aren't you?

tell me
your answer
emptily, dear
hyphenated poetess.

we are nothing,
clay and dust,
bone and rust.
thought and electricity,
we are nothing;

aged as the seas
and young as the
something that
began originally,
we are nothing,
that original something
has been thought of
before you answer,
dear hyphenated poetess,
tell me what aren't
you?

becaue i am the king of nothing.

pl~
