    great

    This brought a smile to me, as the enlightened one
    might have conveyed and encouraged.

    LOL I thought that this was brilliant!! Took me a couple reads over it, and then I just thought, "yikes, I likes it!" I myself can't write this form of poetry well to save my life, but you can, thanks for sharing it!

    Reminds me of the question "Does a dog have Buddha-nature?"

    This OUGHT to be unwieldy, this OUGHT to have too much in it, BUT it doesn't. That very paradox is totally zen, and this is a terrific haiku.
