ICE CREAM Koan 53
Des Pensable (c) 2012
Here is the 53 word version entered into the 53 word competition in December 2012..
Master it’s hot. Like an ice-cream cone? Is it natural? I’ll check … yes. Is it natural? I’ll meditate … yes. Then I cannot have one. Have a cone but I'm not sure it’s natural. Is it natural? Yes Master. Then give me an ice-cream cone, please! But I'm not sure it’s natural.
