Martin Howard Samuel Poet Rhyme

Zero From Nothing

There's nothing I can write
won't be misunderstood
won't be misread
won't be misconstrued
nothing I can scribe
won't be misinterpreted
and nothing I can pen
won't be pooh-poohed.
'Write what you know,'
Mark Twain proposed,
or so
his saying goes
and,
as of the reader I know nothing
nor what the reader knows,
if
I'm not mistaken,
from now on
with such wisdom,
call it 'insight',
when I think of, 'Nothing,'
for the foresaid reader,
'Nothing,' I shall write.
