Other or Nothing

We came to nothing
Via the absence
Of something. Something

Particular was
Multiple. Remove
All of those somethings,

And what you had left
Was none of something.
That none was nothing.

Except it wasn’t.
It was something else.
It’s a miracle,

In a way, nothing,
And that we grasped it,
Since everything

Emptied in some way
Of particulars
Is full of others.
