The one who asks the question

There were words that Mr. Nothing did not trust
the dictionary to provide an adequate definition for.
For instance, what was he supposed to say
in response to the question, “Are you happy?”
The problem is not even with that unfortunate “happy,”
but with the one who asks the question.
