Nothing

The time 

the place 

to make the space

to make or steal

to f**k up or feel

but not for long

the time to steal 

but not to kneel

or cave or crack

or bend or slack

the change in time 

that makes me mine

and once the old stale blood disintegrates

there will be nothing left to hate

nothing at stake

the place to make or take or steal

the stamp that creates the true, true feel

It's perforating and debilitating

maybe I'm hallucinating

drifting towards something 

I have everything and nothing

'I have everything and nothing'
Just the state of mind we live in.:)

Yes - some days I feel like I have everything and I want for nothing and then, sometimes, the next day I will think I have nothing. . .thanks for taking the time to read this!

[Cory Barrett]

We are everything and nothing. The flood of these feelings is what makes humanity great, and awful, and glorious, and f**k, and deep, and cold... and worthwhile.
