Shut my eyes
but the sound of nothing makes patterns on my skin.
Nothing
Nothing
Nothing
Nothing
Nothing
Fading away to silence.

I keep coming back, fascinated by the nothingness, I guess.
Spoooooky!
A little nothing goes a long way.

Have you been reading some Beckett, Clare?
'Nothing' is a wonderful blank canvas, full of possibility!
Heh.
How's the hashish your direction, Clare?
Nothing wouldn't exist if there wasn't something.
Nothing would only exist if there wasn't something, surely. Or alternatively, Nothing wouldn't exist if there was Something. The word and the concept Nothing would only exist if there was Something to describe it as Nothing, but the reality of Nothing would depend on the absence of Something. However we do apparently have Something, and therefore we don't have Nothing. Strictly speaking,however, it is not possible for Nothing to exist; Nothing being a state of non-existence, whereas existence implying Something to be in such a state.
Capital letters to attempt a little form to all that.
Nothing exists apart from me. Everything else is just something manufactured by my mind to keep me amused.
Which means I can eat just as much chocolate as I want.
Obviously.
Impeccable logic, Clare. Though who manufactures the chocolate?
I suppose twould of course be said mind.
Yes, Andrew, exactly. Everything is a manufactured illusion.
Is the mind which manufactures the illusions a creation of this same mind, Clare?
Yup, all the same thing. There is absolutely nothing else.
