   Degrees vary.   
   What letters after a name, what a certificate names, names.   
      
   Does a professor with a doctorate have a Tao, the Tao.   
   Can he or she navigate beyond his or her playing field.   
      
   Some head-shrinkers might stink of Zen.   
      
   Others may scoff at a thought of being able to bend   
   a spoon when there is no spoon given atomic physics.   
      
   Tao Chia, assuming that's a topic, has some lines, verses,   
   versus ways and names, beginning and going as it goes.   
      
   >>>>Each so-called, individual, may have his or her own Tao.

   >>>>Aye. To pose as a threat is ill-advised.   
   >>>>Complexes vary. Some folks are obsessed.

   You and yours may.   
      
   As for the rest of us, authorities have our earned distrust.   
      
   Some trust their deity or deities. Some trust their own selves   
   as if they had or were selves, naturally, individually.   
      
   >>Could be experience has proven to RG a thing or three.
