Don't avoid it. Meet the empty feeling head on. Nothing will come of it.

I just voided my bladder.

in other voids, there's no there there

In hopes of not avoiding what appears, to me, a question...no.

In a field one summer's day a Grasshopper was hopping about, chirping and singing to its heart's content. An Ant passed by, bearing along with great toil an ear of corn he was taking to the nest.

"Why not come and chat with me," said the Grasshopper, "instead of toiling and moiling in that way?"
"I am helping to lay up food for the winter," said the Ant, "and recommend you to do the same."
"Why bother about winter?" said the Grasshopper; we have got plenty of food at present." But the Ant went on its way and continued its toil.
When the winter came the Grasshopper found itself dying of hunger, while it saw the ants distributing, every day, corn and grain from the stores they had collected in the summer.

Then the Grasshopper knew...
It is best to prepare for the days of necessity.

If nothing takes up space then it's something.

it felt so complete, so full and round, ovoid, it was

All this talk has amounted to nothing.

The empty feeling is, if not avoidable, possibly remediable.

Yes. One could simply fill it.

Or move it elsewhere.

Or pretend it's not there.

Or move it to nowhere. Then it would nothing any more.
