Getting Answers

You're probably asking yourself
how is it possible that lack
exists?
How can what isn't
haunt the house?
It's the best question.
When I say "you" I'm referring
to something like
an empty pocket. You are right
beside me, on my hip, but you are
nothing.
I'm sorry. This isn't personal.
That's not my point, but you might
imagine that it could be.
When I say you're asking a question
I understand that
you're not actually asking any questions.
When I stare into the flames
what I see isn't flame.
You know, this shit
is the used up stuff.
