My Beliefs

I'm a Zen Buddhist,
but I don't necessarily believe
in the Zen Buddhist teaching,
so I believe
in a no death,
but only life
kind of permanence,
that changes
by metamorphosis,
and I believe
that there is a time
for everything,
not just the moral,
good and right,
and I believe
in an authentic self
along with other authentic selves
all living in the one
Great Universe,
and I believe
in sleep,
not just awakeness,
and I believe
in me, my and mine,
just because
society sees it that way,
and I even believe
that bad habits
are not necessarily bad.
