Browsing Existence

The search is our existence.
Our distancing from ignorance.

We search for questions, answers.
Not necessarily in that order.
And the jumble gives us meaning
And a distancing from nothing.

For nothing is the "On" switch;
The "Off" switch unknown.
And in between, a life of Googling;
Internet browsing meaning.

Until it all boils down to feeling
the distance between the boil of activity
and the null of birth, death
and alive without the need for breath.
