sufi story III

once the crops have been gathered

biting tasting

chewing

growing fat

snoozing

and chewing again

but lo!!!

you’ve eaten them all up

you fool

how will you do the sowing

now

***

myself

waves

not succeeding, not flowing

bumping into each other

into the thickly lined walls

purposefully trying

to brake

the frozen cage

***

trying and pushing the rock

of your own

on your own

and this is the next moment that is

and the next

and the next

but

if the rock still doesn’t move

don’t worry

you

moved

***

this brain demands chase competition sprint outcome

persistently

incessantly

how come?

no production no race no consumption

at heart

ever

***

just three things

uniqueness

don’t look for anyone like yourself

marriage

discover and acknowledge the being

simple mathematics

start from a zero and finish up with a zero

***

what does a man do when he returns home and

finds

his house

ablaze

he grows

***

a droplet of love

don’t let it

drop
