Las Aves Vacías

All the new birds

are made of nothing.

They have nothing inside

(for anti-ballast)

and those insides

are surrounded

in an outside nothing

that has its own

flibberti hole.

The birds,

they’re nothinging

up there

in the nothing trees,

or on nothing roofs

under a nothing sky.

They fly of course,

but what is flying

if not nothing?
