Shams
Shams, forever dervish,
I made my way, vagabond,
Floating in breeze, I slept
With the last petal of rose,
And drank its nectar,
Wrapped in robe of many colors,
I kneeled at breath of a sunset,
Surets, verses on my tongue
I wept, and sniffed the soil,
damp and pungent
Shams, forever lover,
Dont bound me in ropes,
I dare your rapture
I carry this soil in me
This earth, arrogant mother
That walks away in times,
days, by seduction of the sun
And attraction of the moon,
Blue in desire, while the stars
come to vouyer in burst of lights
Pour me another,
Of your crimson wine, so
Longing subsides the reason,
So I dance crazed in alleys and circles
As my sight soars beyond the realms
Above this golden dome, to the eyes of gods
With my apostles, drunken whores, their hair
Spent, angels naked, lost in prayers
leaving the gatekeepers in disarray
Tell me
Ofthe secrets you dared
Thoughts of mayhem,
Awaken the souls of the sinners,
Call them in your surrets and psalms.
To see the unseen in a glare
Let sin be the guide, as we marvel
In it's scent, lets yellp, and holler
At the top of these heaps
And when done,
Left in tears and sweats,
And the orgy of corpses dead
Wake me to a song, a whisper
Wash me in Rose water,
Call me a name, baptize me
In your breath,
As the angels sing us a hymn
With the father and the son,
Standing afar
bring me to a new birth
