something
          is rather than nothing

ask the universe why it is and it answers with silence

unsettling disturbing unsatisfying unfulfilling...?

yet, something is because it is it must be there is rather than nothing for nothing cannot exist cannot be

{nothing is not} nothing is the lack of something lack of being something is being something exists existence exists {something entails--entailment is, is}

abundance, but cold, disturbed

we are lost in the unsettling, dark vast

and why should the universe answer to our emotional, psychological calls for comfort and coziness desires of egocentric satisfactions searching for intentional purpose just because we want it that way?

refusing the matter-of-factness that something is only because it is but in fact, it is because the somthing that caused it is, too because something that caused it is, too

{is, is}
