A nice verse from Necip Fazıl Kısakürek about nihility from his poem Çile. 
I like it a lot.

Ateşten zehrini tattım bu okun,
Bir anda kül etti can elmasımı.
Sanki burnum, değdi burnuna "yok"un,
Kustum öz ağzımdan kafatasımı.

I tasted fiery poison of this arrow
In a blink it turned my jewel of heart into ash.
As if my nose had touched the nose of nihility
I threw up my skull from my own mouth.
