This one has not a
single idea. It lives in
things, in things only.
– Leonard Blumfeld (© 2014)
Note
This one toys with the well-known and often quoted William Carlos Williams’ statement “No ideas but in things.” Actually, it fails on both accounts – it has neither ideas nor things... It is a very reticent poem, one might say.
