lord the word
between the mean
confucius was too ugly
to eat a pineapple
yet he was ugly enough
to taste the sweet
and sour stuff

onto lao tzu
his name rhymes
with shoe
you cannot say blue
with lao tzu
he withdraws
without color
yet in town
he still wears
a shoe
and some say
a blue shoe
yet not lao tzu

if again
i could taste wind
a pineapple wind
i would not have ate
the taut pig
killed in the pen
of a blacksmith
it would not
have been
nirvana

That's awesome. You are the only person on here I know of who writes interesting titles that draw me in to an interesting poem. Well done.

(Well, other than me, of course. :smile: )
