{∅, {∅}, {∅, {∅}}} : Rage Against the Meat Grinder

Were both of those by Ligotti?

He's obsessed with clowns, old books, and mysterious cults.   

I'm not sure which god I would worship.  You would think the one who laughs at its cosmic hoax, I guess.   I certainly wouldn't follow Ai.  Wouldn't that mean that the meaning will be revealed upon its so-called return?

There is a myth, I think it is African in origin, that is kind of similar to that one about Ye-­Heh (that name is suspiciously close to the Tetragrammaton (YHVH), the ancient Hebrew symbol for "God" - in substitution for the original pronunciation forbidden since more than 200 years "B.C.").

There was also that book with the weird symbols in the cave that may have been Hebrew.

Oh, the African myth this reminds me of ... not the one about the mad scientist Yakub who created the "white race" via "grafting" ... no, it was something about the gods creating the world, then, upon realizing what a disaster it was, well, they just went back to sleep ... like forever.

Some of these myths are truer than others, you know, not in the factual and historically accurate sense, but in the sense of explaining a general quality about the Creation itself ... an accident of cosmic proportions.
