What am I that has not been?
What do I see that’s not been seen?

What do I think that’s not been thought?
What do I seek that’s not been sought?

When do I go where no-one’s gone?
What do I do that no-one’s done?

What do I dream that’s not been dreamt?
What do I pen that’s not been penned?

What do I say that’s not been said?
What do I read that’s not been read?

What life do I lead that’s not been led
By someone long or newly dead?
