It?
Vincent Lamo 1938 (HTFD.,CT.)
What is: IT?
What is the antecedent to it ?
Or is there a better way to ask?
Let’s pluralize the question of it
To see if mind can conquer the task
Why is it ? How is it ?Where is it ?
When is it ?Who is it ?What is it ?
Would it ? Could it ? Should it ?
Will it ?
Has it?
We really must think about it
So many antecedents
So little time
