Something and Nothing
By: Murray Lachlan Young

If beyond everything there is nothing,
and nothing knows nothing of things,
and nothing known nothing of nothing,
then everything’s everything

And for every thing to be something,
first something must say things are things
For without a thing to decide things are things,
tell me, how can a thing be a thing?

But when something says something is nothing,
then nothing is known by a thing
So the thing that said something is nothing
makes nothing a thing that’s something

If beyond everything there is nothing,
and nothing knows nothing of things,
and something knows something of nothing,
can nothing not not be a thing?
