KO-EMS: Zen Koan Meets Child's Poem

Bodhi Bill Miller

KO-EMS combine the essence of the austere Zen KOAN—What is the sound of one hand clapping?—with the playful innocence of a children’s POEM—Jack Sprat could eat no fat...

The result is two rhyming couplets that can both twist your mind and bring a smile.

For example, KO-EM 19: Time is hanging on the wall. Pacing up and down the hall. Ever present, everywhere. Even when I’m gone, it’s there.

Enjoy thirty delightfully original KO-EMS, whimsical spiritual poetry, each illustrated in pen and ink by the author.

“It’s what Odgen Nash might have written if he were a Buddhist.”—Don Hamilton, Writer, Actor, Producer, Cinematographer.

If you enjoyed the KO-EMS, please leave a review so others can discover it.
