I’m going on vacation for a couple weeks.
To vacate – to leave, give up or relinquish,
such as a place or an office.
To evacuate.
To lose in order to find.
I’ll vacate the premises;
I’ll not be writing.
To become vacant.
To create a vacuum.
To go on vacation
I’ll empty my mind.
I’ll make an empty space.
I’ll make room in my life.
(Those who stuff their lives full
have no room for anything;
those who empty their lives
have everything.)
I’ll go on vacation
(though not with a vacant expression)
empty-handed,
with nothing to show for my life
but itself
and return—amazing!—
full of life.
See you in September.
