Any description of a donut hole has to be about the donut.

Both the 'donut' and the 'nothing' are not the 'no thing' in which they appear. They are both 'objects' (of seeing/knowing).

The no thing that sees/knows this is not.

Aw geez, now why'd you have to go and do that?

Laughter. Missing. Longing.

Déjà vu, all over again...

Well, at least now there are occasional clear moments of...
