my big mouth

[genkaku]

Someone posted this over at Zen Forum International and ascribed it to someone called I-tuan whom I can't seem to look up. No matter who said or wrote the words, they certainly made me smile this morning:

Talking is blasphemy,
Silence is delusion.
Beyond talking and silence
there's a way upwards -
but my mouth isn't big enough
to point it out.

Me and my big mouth!

[Jechbi]

That's what ears are for.

[Fede]

Even with yours wide open, I bet you could comfortably sit in mine.
