The Thing Is

Those who are emptied
Wish to be filled,
Those who are filled
Wish to be emptied.

There are others not filled.
There are those not emptied.
They are right in between,
Not sure if they want either.

When the emptied becomes filled
And the filled becomes emptied,
Soon they both see;
Gratitude is greater than wanting.

The Yorubas would say;
“He who has a head has no cap,
and he who has a cap has no head.”

How about those in between?
I don’t answer that,
No one is ever truly there.
