    Sisyphus Standing
    Standing in the presence of nothingness.

    A delirious silence,

    the sound of negative space.

    With the impossibility of presence and absence,

    I labor in all, like the stone of Sisyphus.

    This is a little confusing for those of us who never heard of Sisyphys. It still has merit................. Sally

    Yes, I expect it is, Sysyphus was mythological character that pushed a heavy ston up an eternal hill

    Poetry comes nearer to vital truth than history.

    Plato (BC 427-BC 347) Greek philosopher.
