Space Filler
Space filler
fluff
whatever it is
that you'd call it.
No matter how well-known
intelligent, profound
we all tend to fill
the empty spaces.
With words,
written on paper.
Words
spoken in silence.
Noise
when peace would do.
Not all silence is
awkward.
Not all white space
is in need of
color.
Sometimes the absence
of color
of words
is part of the artwork,
adds to the discussion.
Sometimes it's empty for a
reason
but by filling it
we'll never know.

We live in a world full of words, talking, singing, arguing. Sometimes we need to just step back, take a breath, and enjoy a moment of silence.
