noting no thing.

nothing is to be nonexistent. 
thus, with the being of no thing, there must be an everything. 
thus, they must be in the same. 

tarrance = tarrance.
thus if tarrance is not tarrance then there is no tarrance. 
but if tarrance is not tarrance, there is a tarrance to know what a tarrance is.
(funny, thus far, the only misspelled word is tarrance.)

so to exist is to have not existed.
this is what we call birth, no?
yes. 
therefore, all things must exist for them to not exist. 

exist being a verb, of course. 
or a adjective, even. 

can we reach the horizon?
no matter how far we walk, we cannot. 
but it does exist, doesn't it?
no. and yes. 
we can walk until we meet defeat (de-feet) and never touch it.
so then, does it exist?
what the hell is "it" anyway?

"it" is whatever i say it is. 
that is the American way.

but then what of God, air, clouds, Santa?
we cannot touch them but they exist. right?
an English solider cannot be touched. but they are very real. 
and those who try to touch them are met with ill repercussions. 

these other things are american ideas, mostly.
which we, also, cannot touch.

damn it.

i say that to say: "nothing is everything."
but how bland is that?



thank you Percival Everett.
