To me you are a wave. Never here, never there! You are, still, nowhere! Grabbing, dragging, then fleeing away, you swiftly spread, like a deadly plague, on the run for the Other Soil, your destination’s vague! Watching you, from far and wide, in my seized eye, you’re a rebellious tide, in an eternal glide. Insistent, impatient, then a restless errant, you must be calm in heart, fretful just in act! And I now know, the sea of regret, is your native land. Yes, you are an unruly tide! So always on the ride, in an eternal glide! But one night, I will wear a mask, made of the thirst, of the remotest shores, and their desert islands. And I’ll capture you, in my absorbing sands, forever far away, from your naval natal lands.
I ASKED YOU FOR ONE KISS – Rumi’s Rubaiyat

A LIZARD WALKED BESIDE ME IN THE DESERT – Mohammad Bagher Kolahi Ahari
A lizard walked beside me in the desert, demanding a loaf of bread at every step. And I, carrying a large sack, told him jokingly “My sack is bottomless, come along!”. I crossed the desert, emptied the bread sack, cashed in the sack of days. And what did I beget: a monster, slumbering on my doorstep.
THE FACE SHE SHOWS ME – Rumi’s Rubaiyat
The face she shows me is a little sour, though sugar has never tasted sweeter. Sugar would be bored by its own sweetness, if it ever came to know that sour flavor.
