Jerry Riches "Nothing"
© January, 2003 Jerry Riches

Nothingness.....

I know now what I have known all these years.
My mind is settled, my view is clear.
Thise are no more doubts or misgivings.

I am positive of what I know and can prove it.
It is concrete and certain, I now know,

Wait for it,

I now know that I know nothing, have learned little, 
And, There is little hope that I will ever know what I know.

Every time I find an answer, I find questions.
Every time I reach conclusions, I find doubts.
Every time I form an opinion, I find contradictions.

I can firmly state, without equivocation, that I know nothing,
Am nothing, will amount to nothing, 
And am perfectly content to be nothing.

For, you see, nothing is something.
I love and am loved.
I am and I will continue.
The universe will continue, life will be, I will be,
Without being anything more than what I am,
Which is nothing, which is something, isn’t it?
