if anyone asks you
how perfect satisfaction
of all your s-xual wanting
will look, lift your face
and say,
like this.
when someone mentions the gracefulness
of the night sky, climb up on the roof
and dance and say,
like this?
if anyone wants to know what “spirit” is,
or what “god’s fragrance” means,
lean your head towards him or her.
keep your face there close.
like this.
when someone quotes the old poetic image
about clouds gradually uncovering the moon,
slowly loosen the knot strings
of your robe.
like this?
if anyone wonders how jesus raised the dead,
don’t try to explain the miracle.
kiss me on the lips.
like this. like this.
when someone asks what it means
to “die for love”, point
here.
if someone asks how tall i am, frown
and measure with your fingers the sp-ce
between the creases on your forehead.
this tall.
the soul sometimes leaves the body, the returns.
when someone doesn’t believe that,
walk back into my house.
like this.
when lovers moan,
they’re telling our story.
like this.
i am a sky where spirits live.
stare into the deepening blue,
while the breeze says a secret.
like this.
when someone asks what there is to do,
light the candle in his hand.
like this.
how did joseph’s scent come to jacob?
huuuuu.
how did jacob’s sight return?
huuuuu.
when shams comes back from tabriz,
he’ll put his head around the edge
of the door to surprise us.
like this.
