~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
you ask me
who are you and
with such a shaky
existence how can you
fall in love
how do i know
who am i or where i am
how could a simple wave
locate itself
in an ocean
you ask me
what am i seeking
above and beyond
the pure light
that i once was
and why am i
imprisoned in this cage
named body and
yet i claim to be
a free bird.
how do i know
how i lost my way
i know for sure
i was all straight
before i was
seduced by love.
-- Translation by Nader Khalili
"Rumi, Fountain of Fire"
