That thing

THE THING

The thing is, what is the thing? Is this the thing, or is this simply the route to the thing? Or maybe just a red herring?

Will the thing live outside this thing, or will it be part and parcel of the same thing?

Can this thing be the thing, and if so what kind of thing can it be?

Can I think the thing into being, or will the thing just be?

Can I be the king of thing, or just a fucking nothing?

Nothing can come from nothing, but a thing can come from another thing.

One thing leads to another.

Wouldn’t that be something?

The thing is the thing the thing is.

The thing is, the thing is the thing.

If you are the king - you'll need a crown and the thing is how will it perch on top of your virgin wool Pinter hat?

thank you ms fu.

I might be able to balance the Pinter Hat on top of one of the spikes of the crown, maybe having secured any sharp points with cotton wool first.
