The Tao that can be spoken
is not the Tao
yet the one who speaks
of the Brown Cow Tao
utters a wordless---wow!

Low and high are like the wind.
The Brown Cow Tao
moves its tail
(the tail of the wind)
but the Tao never moves
so it is never high or low.

Sages, dragons and wizards
know the How of the Tao
and the Now of the Tao
but know one knows
the Why of the Cow-
No one.
