Nothing About Nothing

Consciously doing nothing requires more effort

Than doing nothing unconsciously.

As long as there are rules to be followed

And conventions to be honored,

There will be rules that are broken

And conventions that vanish with the dawn.

Keeping the rules straight

Is more than I can bear.

Nothing is as it was.

So, nothing is nothing,

But of course, it must be something.

Sorry.

That’s one paradox I am not prepared

To discuss at this time.
