If you want to think of nothing 
you must feel the weightless wind of nothing,
smell the scent of nothing
and touch the sea of nothing.

If you want to think of nothing
you must walk down a path of nothing
reach a dead end of nothing
and turn back to the path of nothingness.

If you want to think of nothing,
you have to call up your friend who's nothing,
meet he or she at a cafe place, while drinking a cup of hot tasty nothing.
Chatting away about a book of nothing you just read.

If you want to think of nothing,
You must go to bed  thinking of absolutely nothing
close your eyes so you see nothing,
and make sure your alone to hear nothing,
so that your dreams are about all the nothing you heard saw and felt that day.

If you want to think of nothing,
You just have to pretend you are in a world that is everything but nothing.

What are you thinking about right now?
I sure hope your answer is nothing!  To start off, the reason I wrote this poem was a certain meditation I wanted to try out. Sometimes our minds are too cluttered with thoughts that overwhelm us to an extent where we cannot take it anymore. For instance, today while I was on the bus going to school I was very angry at my mother that morning because of a pointless argument that I had with her. My head was fuming so much that I wanted to explode. As a result, I tried to not think about it, but instead of thinking of the fight, I started thinking about more worries that was stressing me out. So, I tried this meditation method of thinking about absolutely nothing, which I have always thought was impossible to do yet it was so easy when I wrote about it in a poem. Just reading the word nothing made me think of the word nothing and what it represents. Therefore, I brought the word nothing alive by turning "nothing" into everything our world has to offer us. Our senses, the nature, people and food. Everything we need to survive, instead of all the pointless things that we tend to waste our thoughts on. Try it out sometime!
