The Words That Made Alice Cry
[If you don’t know what this is from, I’m not sure you should be reading this blog. -ss]
When you look closer, nothing goes away.
It changes, see, like night becomes the day
And day the night; but even that’s not true:
It’s really all about your point of view,
Depending where you’re standing on the Earth.
And, in the end, it simply isn’t worth
Your while to try and clean your life away.
You can’t. For everything you do or say
Is there, forever. It leaves evidence.
In fact it’s really only common sense;
There’s no such thing as nothing, not at all.
It may be really very, very small
But it’s still there. In fact I think I’d guess
That “no” does not exist. There’s only “yes”.
