In entirety, an entirety
Naught but a void otherwise
Take bits from me, ye shall find:
A tool, an inquiry, a tragedy

You are:
A WHOLE
In entirety, an entirety
The word "Whole" in its full form means... well, a full form.
Naught but a void otherwise
But it also sounds like the word "hole", which is an empty space.
Take bits from me, ye shall find: A tool, an inquiry, a tragedy
By choosing certain letters from the word, we get "HOE", a farming tool, "WHO", a question, and "WOE", a sad thing indeed!
