the rule of 9 (a clipping from the Tao of Pi)

By Autotomy

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Avoid the lies Succumb to your memories Relive the pain Forget what you were told Learn for yourself Never believe the hype Go to sleep Wake up in a haze Do it all over againmy nickname at work is Pi (as in 3.14 never ending number Pi) I've been into Taoism for a while. One day I just decided to write under the title 'the Tao of Pi'. Or the way of Pi. As a whole it makes no sense what so ever. Because I have not found my way through life just yet. In part is starts to make some sense. This is is one of those parts, a tid bit if you will. If it makes sense to you great awesome. If not no worries its my tao not yours =) Written January 20th, 2002 © on Jan 20 2002 02:55 PM PST   18 • 0 • 13
