Nothingness: The zero sum game

 

This existence is like a fiery dragon whizzing in a circle. It eats the same excreted stuff that comes out of its tail after the previous food is consumed in the guts for fuelling its fiery dash. The excreta then becomes the same stuff that was previously eaten by the time the head comes circling again at that point. At each point on the circle, what it now eats was formerly left out of the tail after consuming as fuel for its journey. Nothing added, nothing subtracted. But still such a rollercoaster ride! The question arises, ‘Who set the ball rolling initially?’
