When We Do Nothing, A Philosophizing Poem by RIC BASTASA

did he tell you
that even those who stand and wait
also serve?

which means precisely that those who do nothing
(also does something)

that by doing nothing
they also share
what you are thinking right now

do we think that writing is doing something
that thinking is also doing something?

what is it that which is nothing that we can do?
tell me.

everything is everything and it includes nothing actually.
everything embraces also nothing.

so when you do everything you also do what nothing is.
there is nothing that we can do.
everything is here, including this 'nothing'

do you really do nothing?
try thinking some more. try doing nothing, if it is possible at all.

i tell you, it is not.
really, it is.
