Log on; no one online.
Look at a book; read the spine.
Take me on a journey,
Take me on a trip.
Put me on an IV drip.
At least it would be exciting;
Nothingness is fine, but
At least is hard to get used to
When there's nothing new
Under the Sun.
Why does Mersault kill the arab?
Because of the Sun.
Damn those misleading footnotes.
    
tu veux parler?
     non.
     oui, d'accord.
au revoir.

I feel the tug of the moon -- red.
Dialogue is nothing but empty words
When written by a single person.
Who does that. Talk to themselves in
The Mirrors of empty bathrooms.
People like me do. That's who.

a poem about writing a poem

is the same as writing a poem about boredom. However, I'm disappointed that you used "nothingness" and didn't venture into the heideggerian space of nothingness when faced with boredom/anxiety--being/artist.

not random

I am going to argue with the poet lol! Hey, perhaps it was brainstormy but it read with purpose, with pattern, with meaning. Far from random. nique phrasing, interesting images, but in my mind, purposeful.
