To Have Done Nothing
BY
William Carlos Williams


No that is not it
nothing that I have done
nothing
I have done
is made up of
nothing
and the dipthong
together with
the first person
singular
indicative
of the auxiliary
verb
to have
everything
I have done
is the same
if to do
is capable
of an
infinity of
combinations
involving the
moral
physical
and religious
codes
for everything
and nothing
are synonymous
when
energy in vacuo
has the power
of confusion
which only to
have done nothing
can make
perfect
