This is a book of poetry and meditations on absurd notions like God, Truth, and Being (there is nothing absurd about Coffee!). Absurd because there does not seem to be any real, definitive, universally accepted answers to these subjects, which in truth are actually questions. The only exception appears to be Coffee. Coffee seems to be an answer unto itself, needing no further exposition. You will also find in this book some mention of the martial art of Aikido, an art that I have been practicing for many years. I first started Aikido to complement my personal meditation practice. Some people insist that a person can't really fulfill their meditation potential without also studying a martial art, nor become a complete martial artist without studying and practicing meditation. I tend to agree. Creating an Aikido body concurrently creates an Aikido mind, both working hard for that hoped for eventual unity. Basically, the book is composed of commentaries and hopefully insights, in a poetic format, into the various subject matters. The poems in this book are intentionally not particularly long and can be read in any order, there is no specific classification or ostensible ordering, though some pairings will be apparent. I also hope readers will pay attention to the quotes in the quotes sections offered in the front and back of this book. They were selected with care to fit and complement the book's subject matter.
