Zero


Zero

There are possibilities in numbers.
That’s where I would look for God.
Without really understanding how they work,
It is the zero that most intrigues me.

Balance is achieved and constants approved
When the net result is zero.
Meditation reaches to’rd stillness
And active rest awaits that circle.

A man walks into a movie theater
Intent on killing people,
People he doesn’t know.
What color are the seats before the shooting starts?

Some people eating popcorn,
Others smiled as the film started.
A baby is sleeping in Mom’s arms.
She hopes he will remain quiet.

Is the shooter following a script?
Do the numbers matter,
Or is he looking for silence?
Could we predict his choice? 

The shooting seems random,
But what of the movie?
Did he have a preference?
What might we learn?

Is he an agent of a God
That does not want this movie played?
If everyone in the theater had a gun
Would less people be killed?
