Tao Te Ching (Marshall)

A Translation of Lao Tsu's Tao Te Ching from the "The Perennial Way" by Bart Marshall

Eleven


Thirty spokes of a wheel converge
to define a hole.
Clay is molded into pots
to shape the emptiness.
Walls are hammered into rooms
to enclose space.
Windows are cut into walls
to frame absence.

Though things may have value,
without no-thing they are useless.
