This is NOTHING
by Lily Isong

This is NOTHING

This is how emptiness feels;

Like a glass, you're holding it, it's warm.
like a mirror even.
heavy, you see yourself in it.
It's crystal clear, it's shaped in a way you like, you turn it towards the sun, it reflects.
you can tell the direction of the sun with it.
I guess.

Terraced Iron Mountain
by Ayatullah Nurjati

My neighborhood is flanked by terraced iron mountains
Dark clouds seemed to surround him
The river water is also murky black
They say they are victims of urbanization

A city that always beats 24 hours a day
Its activities have been bound in a labyrinth
Modernity displays the face of emptiness
I, who live there, find it very, very difficult to meet and chat with honesty

Vacancy
by Disha Shree

Felt like the ghost in the world of paper dolls,
More even like the ghost in my own machine,
I was the ghost running through time and space,
And the world became a noise, a distraction to be in.

People being the fragment of fire, barely a cinder,
It never mattered because I was the gasoline,
Soul was silent, chill in my blood,
Coldness bringing the synapses of my brain to a stand still.

by Mario Odekerken

Er is geluid,
maar het raakt me niet.

Mensen spreken,
maar ik hoor niets
wat vult.

Alles om me heen beweegt,
alsof het iets betekent.
In mij

Leegte
by Mario Odekerken

Je stoel staat er nog,
alsof je elk moment terugkomt.

De stilte draagt je naam,
fluistert in kamers
waar je niet meer bent.

Tijd schuift voorbij,
maar jij blijft
tussen ademhalingen

Emptiness
by Igor Vykhovanets

A nerdy scholar spews his blather,
And fools believe his hollow talk.
He twists life’s essence, tears and shatters,
Defiling nature as he walks.

But Spirit rules—its light is fleeting,
Erased wherever lies take hold.
Deceit’s a chain, so tight, deceiving—
Believe the nonsense—lose your soul.
