A Cushion for Your Head

Just sit there right now
Don’t do a thing
Just rest.

For your separation from God,
From love,

Is the hardest work
In this
World.

Let me bring you trays of food
And something
That you like to
Drink.

You can use my soft words
As a cushion
For your
Head. —Hafiz

Link

I’ve always known that God was my Creator and that, uh, without Him, uhm, boy, nothing works. It works to a point and then it just kind of deteriorates, entropy takes place.

Bonfire at Midnight

A shout comes out of my room

where I’ve been cooped up.

After all my lust and dead living

I can still live with you.

You want me to.

You fix and bring me food.

You forget the way I’ve been.

The ocean moves and surges in the heat

of the middle of the day,

in the heat of this thought I’m having.

Why aren’t all human resistances

burning up with this thought?

It is a drum and arms waving.

It is a bonfire at midnight on the top edge of a hill,

this meeting again with you.

—Rumi
