On the curious thrusting of spears…

there is 武, and
there is 武™, and
there is 武®.
 
where one arrives is
quite simply spears
meeting targets, and
only 武 stops further
thrusting of them.
 
thus it is said that the
path pathed is not the
path, and the name
named is not the name.
 
so just so —
there is 道, and
there is 道™, and
there is 道®.
 
yet above the permutations,
武 for the benefit of all 道 is
武道.
