'Cherub Playing a Lute' Painting by Rosso Fiorentino 1521
I am Gray.
My pitiful lifes a tragedy. I wished I was nothing. Miraculously, I got my wish.
Suddenly, I was freely floating among the stars, formless, the last of my mortal soul rejoicing… then finally nothingness. Colorless.
. . .
Forever, however, is a long time to be nothing. At some point, I found myself near earth.
By proximity, I’d watch.
I am nothing. Still, I found myself comparing--
no pain, fear, hunger….
I am nothing, but as the list went on--
no love, joy, passion…
No color…..
Suddenly as much as nothing could want something, I wanted something, to feel anything... If only for but a moment.
