Null Knowledge

NULL KNOWLEDGE

By Uncle Tonie

All I know is that I know nothing.
But if nothing is all that I know.
Then at least I know nothing.
Nothing itself is not nothing.
Nothing is a void omni-absent entity full of emptiness.
Nothing is nothing more than nothingself.
I do recognize that my knowledge is nonsensically nothing.
To conclude: this nihilistic cognitive realization ended up in nothing.


P.S.: I had to stop writing this looping poem because I was starting to feel dizzy. The reason why was obvious: from the middle of the poem on, I sort of got lost since I was going full circle, and at that point I didn’t know whether all was nothing or vice versa. In other words: nothing made sense.

palavras, palavras,

palavras, palavras...
que estranha potência vossa!
todo sentido da vida
principia a vossa porta...

dos venenos humanos
sois a mais fina retorta
