It is nothing of course, nought and zilch
It has seemingly no value in numerology
In science and the mystical, it is a reference point
It is not even a number, nor a fraction;
A digit without value, a notional presence,
Pushed everywhere, before and after
Anywhere from one to nine.
A worthless loser, used and exploited;
Or is it?
In science and mathematics, astrology and religion,
It is priceless, valuable in charts and star signs
Defining our place in relation to others,
From birth, pivotal moments, to death;
From fate and destiny
From celestial bodies to the cosmos,
To ultimately our place in the universe.
Your birth chart, opened and unfolded,
A serious life lesson to be studied;
Imagine Saturn at 0 degrees Capricorn
Past life experiences, deeds and paths well trodden
Major shifts, turning points, planets aligned in position.
Your karma always in tow.
The irony that is zero;
From zero to Man to nothing again
Once we shuffle off the mortal coil;
Footprints reduced to ashes in a jar.
Zero is nothing; it is everything and much more.
