I am something
Am I Just
another nothing
how is that possible
I think it is impossible
something from nothing
nothing can't be something
something could be anything
but anything could be nothing
a notion starts the motion
thoughts become things
things could be anything
and things are something
but things aren't everything
and everything is something
but nothing is always nothing
nothing plus nothing is nothing
nothing from nothing is nothing
another is the thing before
another is the thing after
so if there is nothing
nothing is nothing
nothing before
nothing is after
another nothing
is impossible
I Am
Something
