Little fish

Whether you’re ruling a big country,
or frying a little fish,
the rules are the same.

Do it the right way and you’ll have no trouble.
Or, you’ll have trouble, but it will pose no threat.
Or, it’ll pose a threat, but it will do no harm.

If there is no resistance, there can be no battle.
Just a little movement back and forth.”

Poem #60 from ‘I thought I was on the way to work, but I was on the way home’, my new version of Lao Tsu’s Tao Te Ching. Buy your copy here.
