THREE OLD MONK POEMS (430) 

 
HOW MUCH DO YOU

How much do you have to lose
before you find what you're looking for,
the old monk asked his master.

~

ARE YOU SPEAKING

Are you speaking
of a principle

or an instance,
the old monk asked.

Do you want it
to apply just now

or always?

~

IF YOU UNDERSTAND

If you understand
their numbers,

you can play
their music,

the old monk said
about the orchestra.
