as a matter of fact, neither do you
maybe you imagine that you are real
sorry but...to argue, if you insist
of course, this can be proven either way
really, philosophy puts in the screw
really, amphiboly makes its appeal
yes, just like in a court of law, but not
because this is a poem, as they say
unless someone knows something more than this
to say we do or do not exist is...
I know, you think you are here now, what bliss
despite the fact you are alive, a quiz
of uncertain origin asks who caught
nothingness by the tail with a steel hook
only when I am long gone will you know
to be sure, everyone passes away
except to say, over there, see that rook
xenophobic strangers do not eat crow
if you understand what I mean to say
still as a raven, say no more, say less
to say we never existed, I guess...
