Get out the microscope, because we’re going through this poem line-by-line.
- Okay, this one's all about the awesomeness of emptiness.
- Don't think emptiness is awesome?
- Well, the TTC has some things for you to consider...
- How about how the hub of a wagon wheel has to have holes in it for the spokes to fit into?
- Without those empty holes, the wheel wouldn't work.
- How about the fact that a container can't contain anything without the emptiness inside of it?
- The same thing goes for rooms; without emptiness, rooms don't exist.
- And then there's doors and windows... awesome things. Awesome empty things.
- Yup: emptiness is totally and completely necessary for the function of a whole lot of things.
