   Between milk and meat and evaporated both   
   there may be found lots of people on lots of paths.   
      
   Exoteric Buddhism may not stop at some so-called enlightened   
   state of being all above all in all yet have its Fourth Truth.   
      
   What appears here, in some of these crossposts, is a lack,   
   a supreme lack, of compassion and realization of Door #4.   
      
   In that sense, of the crazy-eight-folded-way, Buddhism   
   is more akin to Confucianism which is also a Taoism.   
      
   Confucius was said to have been the greatest Sage.   
      
   The old-guys of Taoist lore, Old Guy number one   
   as well as Zz, kept harping on esoteric mumbo jumbo   
   while flying on an elephant riding a carpet wide   
   enough to hold on to a flea-bag on top   
   of a dog that had other gnats   
   on the back of a turtle.
