This is nothing you think

Presence is not what you think

 

Placeless and traceless

 

nowhere to be seen

 

but still always

 

now - here

 

beautifully clear

 

This thoughtless knowing

 

that simply

 

"is"

Nils I like your writing and this poem in particular, but was distracted by the cleverness of the geometric format.
I champion originality but in this case the words were strong and evocative enough to sculpt themselves. I loved the symmetry of the phrases.
This is not a negative criticism but a compliment and meant to be constructive. You have wonderful literary skills and I enjoy them as a reader.

Indeed, many of our days are filled with that 'thoughtless knowing.'
