Conceive

Living is inconceivable to me
As everything I try to understand
Defies no matter what the theories grand
Conceiving is the possibility.
Consider somewhat rather than no thing
Impossible quagmire, a paradox.
Can nothing not be? Thus the mental shock!
Rancour riles the mind. Occlusion to bring?
Existence racing towards the blackest wall
Oblivion ; alas I remember 
All time before; nothing charcoaled ember
Have I created all that I recall?

And in the end the dreaded question why?
The question at all costs avoid - I try.
