That little….

a free verse poem on us, cosmos, big bang

that little space between two musical notes, that little silences between two lovers’ words of love, that little pause the runner takes before the final sprint, that little thought the soldier has before plunging into the enemy, that little prayer the patient makes before the anesthesia seeps in, that little look into the sky, searching for a face, before starting the day, that little moment of nothingness, just before you travel to dreamland,

and, that little feeling of emptiness, the cosmos had, just before, the big bang, that space between the explosions and contractions, between the beginning and the end, creating space and time, in which we experience life.

Thank you so much, Dr. Mehmet Yildiz and all the editors at Illumination for sheltering so many of my stuff, here!
