I certainly don't think that you could perceive anything that is not an object of thought. Especially when you look at epistemology through a Kantian related framework; reality as we understand it is really only our thoughts/ perceptions of it and nothing more.
It is an interesting question though whether "nothing" is an object of thought. Is nothingness a "thing" or a perceived reality? We do denote it as something when we speak about it, we even represent it mathematically as "0." I would tend to say that nothingness is an object of thought since my conception of nothingness could be different than another person's. This would also translate into the question of whether nothingness is an objective or subjective reality. I think it's an interesting question.

Pull up a chair and have some cold duck...while I try to understand you...That is so hard to do by the way..But you make it that much fun..
Your thoughts are never denoted nor are they of matter. Your thoughts are that. If you want to make it happen you have to use physical matter to change your denoting that you want to do. So the physical matter is now and object that is now in your mind. Have some more cold duck....Can you fill the coldness that is in your tummy that is physical right..Well if you think about it that is the physical part of you too...Have another .......got to go bye.....See Miss Chatea the physical being leaving ....C YA

Dharma that is awakened through enlightenment via no thought. Our senses have their limitations. Our ideas have their limitations. Our language has its limitations. All of our tools have their limitations as well. Understanding the underlying truth in all things beyond the limits of our perceptual world is figuratively turning the wheels of the dharma. That is satori. Satori is beyond thought. At least that is what a bodhisattva might tell you.
