Chaos

I was reading with intersest on the subject of Chaos, and thought that I would toss in my 2 gold sovereigns. I will first state that I do not profess to know much on this subject. I am not looking to define chaos, because, by its nature, definitions are limiting. Might I be as bold to state that "Chaos is"? It is not something, because by calling it that something, Chaos would then need to be all of that something. For example, If I were to say that Chaos is blus (why not), then all of Chaos must be blue, and everything that Chaos encompasses must be blue, and all that is blue must be Chaos. To that end, all is blue, so we can no longer recognize what that blue is. By saying that "Chaos is", it can be infinately big, or infinately small, or infinately big AND small, at the same time. "Chaos is" encompasses both perfection and imperfection, at the same time.
Or, it is nothing of the sort.
