Emptiness of Opposites (poem)

Emptiness is devoid of its opposite.
For the Void is empty of space,
yet is still vast as space itself.
To further define emptiness,
contemplate the following:

Good is empty of evil.
Greatness is empty of smallness.
Kindness is empty of unkindness.
Life is empty of death.
Love is empty of hate.
Perfection is empty of imperfection.
Phenomenon is empty of noumenon.
Primordial is empty of newness.
Purity is empty of impurity.
Reality is empty of unreality.
Truth is empty of falsehood.

Yet, these are not truly opposites;
instead, they are complements.
For great good is
empty of good and evil,
just as great love
is empty of love and hate.
Being devoid of opposites
implies trascendence of them.
