Mu

Mu is a collection of Zen poems written by the author to remind himself of the nature of the Way. They are silly and serious, but mostly they highlight that no one need be perfect to be in a state of Zen. Such ideas are antithetical to Zen practice. Zen is not about being a sage or a perfect being. It is only about letting things happen and not hanging on. These poems underscore this reality. The poetry in this book highlights Mark's love of nature and, of course, dogs.
