    Eating

    Eating

    I sit here and eat with this person.
    Thoughts run around,
    But what do you do?

    I sit and eat with this person.
    The calm is neither wanting nor giving.
    The time it takes to put a bite in a mouth,
    Is the time it takes to put a bite in the mouth.

    I sit here and eat with this person.
    Who are they?
    Don't know.
    Where do they come from?
    Don't know.
    Doesn't matter.
    Eating eats.

    What's the trouble?
    None at all.
    When done, wrap up your dishes.
    Or put away the chair.

    When done,
    Get up.

    When done-
    Done.

    There is not one thing you do not know.
    And there is nothing you do know.
    Knowing is as about as great as knowing is.

    What is knowing?
    Now, there's a question.
    Whether it is answered or not,
    Knowing is knowing.
    Nothing more to know.

    Leaves spring up,
    Waves move back and forth.
    All sits with Buddha,
    And Buddha sits with all.

    And that's how it goes.

    Don't fret.
    Everything is perfectly fine.
    Exactly how it is supposed to be.
    And it "bees"
    What it "bees"
