Tao-65 — Chapter 11
1
We join spokes together in a wheel,
2
but it is the center hole
3
that makes the wagon move.
4
We shape clay into a pot,
5
but it is the emptiness inside
6
that holds whatever we want.
7
We hammer wood for a house,
8
but it is the inner space
9
that makes it livable.
10
We work with being,
11
but non-being is what we use.
