sign language; or, zen koans


IF THE DOORS ARE OPEN PLEASE DO NOT LEAVE THEM CLOSED

 IF THE DOORS ARE CLOSED PLEASE DO NOT LEAVE THEM CLOSED

IF THE DOORS ARE OPEN PLEASE DO LEAVE THEM OPEN

IF THE DOORS ARE DOORS PLEASE DO NOT LEAVE THEM CLOSED

IF THE DOORS ARE WINDOWS PLEASE DO NOT LEAVE THEM AS DOORS

IF THE DOORS ARE WALLS PLEASE DO NOT LEAVE THEM CLOSED

IF THE DOORS ARE WALLS PLEASE OPEN THEM

IF THE WINDOWS ARE DOORS PLEASE UNLOCK AND OPEN THEM

IF THE DOORS ARE DOORS PLEASE DO LEAVE THEM OPEN

IF WALLS COULD TALK WOULD DOORS HAVE EARS

IF EARS COULD TALK WHAT LANGUAGE WOULD THEY HEAR

AND IF A TIMES B EQUALS C SQUARED WHAT IS THE COSINE OF CUPIDITY
