What I Do Not Know

I don’t know what language chickens speak, but I do know it is fowl.

*

I don’t know Einstein’s Theory of Relativity, but I do know many of Einstein’s.

*

I don’t know why the sky is blue, but I do know air makes up the sky.

*

I don’t know why 2 + 2 = 4 in my world.  I do know that in a surrealist world,
2 + 2 = Strawberry Shortcake.

*

I don’t know Why?  I do know Because.

*

I don’t know any clouds, but I do know some condensed water vapour.

*

I don’t know why I am nervous.  I do know that I am anxious, agitated and highly strung.

*

I don’t know what a surrealist is doing in my backyard, but he is eating strawberry shortcake.

*

I don’t know what I do not know, but I do know that I do not know it.
