nothing knew [1]
her mom nicknamed her ‘zero’
her daddy’s last name: ‘knew’
they raised her to believe, but she would leave and seek the truth
at times she’d disappear into hypotheses and rhymes
nothing knew that something would appear to her (in time)
nothing knew (her eyes were blue), she didn’t need some hero
at times, she’d dis/appear
her mom nicknamed her ‘zero’
