The Question Is Wrong Poem by Asit Kumar Sanyal

The Question Is Wrong



There is a saying
Every question has an answer
But it is wrong.
If someone ask me
Is there any life in Mars?
I will say … I don't know
But it's not the specific answer
It's a response
There is no answer of it
We may get the answer In near future.
A question may be nonsensical,
Meaningless,
contradictory
or not worthy of a response
we can't answer of it
because the question is wrong.
There is a concept in Zen Buddhism
It's known as ‘mu'
Means … the question is wrong
Sometime a question
assumes binary answer
May be ‘yes'
may be ‘no'
But best answer is ‘mu'
The question is wrong.
A question that makes grammeratical sense
Does indeed have an answer
But which does not
Simply say ‘mu'
The question is wrong.
