Is there Anything besides Nothing and Everything…?

ZEN Humor...? Does it exist...?


Poem Artwork


Why do Most Negative Words Begin with the Letter "N", and is this in some Peculiar Way Related to the Fact that Most Words that Refer to the Middle (Such as Mean, Median, Mode, Middlemost, Middling, Meridian) Begin with the Letter "M," which is the Middle Letter in the Alphabet?


 


To be totally Zen,


One must of the self be again,


Have I been this way since I was ten,


Even way back before I was taught to say amen…?


 


Is this Zen humor,


For today that is the rumor,


And you know the mill it changes daily,


Told over and over it changes as to the tellers whim…


 


Is there any such thing as humor?


Most of us are members of generation boomer,


Maybe I suffer from some kind of brain tumor,


Given me by another Zen consumer…J

Have I been this way since I was ten,

If I remember correctly, Little Brother, you started about age three!

BTW, Ed - "Is there Anything besides Nothing and Everything…?" Would Something count?
