By merely being Zen cats show

They are not ‘here’ nor are they ‘there’

By moving ‘they’ just do not go

they’re always here yet are nowhere

 

The Zen cats have no mission here

Absorbed in Self they don’t know fear

They have no feelings anymore

It meant the end of all their lore

 

The Zen cats don’t communicate

For them, Self-absorbed is fate

They do not speak nor do they write

They don’t resist and do not fight

 

The Zen cats are without a stain

The mind dissolved, they can’t feel pain

All questions to the cats in vain

It’s something they will not explain
