Empty parameters don't signify
Despite their best intention to so do;
They touch only themselves, self-modify,
And doing such, never create anew.
Rather they feed on their own flesh, and taste
The bitter mockery of self-deceit
Pretending that they have not been a waste
Pretending they consume some other meat.
I see them void and wish it were not so,
And therefore seek to give them aught to touch;
For touching others, they begin to know
Their own true purpose, and because of such
Cease to be cannibals, and join the system
Of words and other symbols, that have missed 'em.
