Empty Head...Empty Soul

Empty-headed brains full of white noise,
Spew forth meaningless chatter
About appearance and ego
About events of no consequence
Foolishness.

The reality of life and death,
Brushed aside and ignored
For thoughts of celebrities
For music without substance
Trivial pursuits.

Living a life of denial
Ignoring what matters
Keeping busy going nowhere
Doing nothing of consequence.
Treading water.

Filling the hollow soul
With a bit of wine
With a ridiculous flirtation
By manufacturing conflict
Creating drama.

Is there no hope of insight?
If I shook you, would it precipitate
A clear and rational thought?
How can you not see?

Someone loved you enough to die for you!
