Empty Gestures never mean anything, they are just actions never meant to be followed up. We have all faced empty gestures in life, haven't we?
These are poems about empty gestures that I wrote as I was thinking what empty gestures are all about.
empty gestures
actions without any meaning
a shake of your head
meaning
a yes for a no
or
no for a yes
empty gestures
only lies
uttered in the spur of the moment
not a grain of truth in them
**********
Plain Empty
Empty Gestures
not saying what they mean
not meaning what they say
empty gestures
always never mean anything
just a shake of your head
a wave of your hand
nothing there to understand
empty gestures
never stay
meaningless
they all fade away

We are so used to these gestures that never realize the significance of it.
