i see the boy

i like zeroes. and i like ones. and so i think about existence and nothingness. i think that existence has meaning only against the backdrop of non-existence. but what is that? what doesn't exist? and if i answer that, if i name something, does it then exist? i call into being, with my imagination, and then by naming, things that never were. and i become a creator, like the one who made me. i call into existence the world i want to live in. i imagine, i think, i speak, i act, i create: i hold on to my ideals, for there is nothing so worthwhile. come with me.
