scared? wanna hang on? how can we be raftless? and oh dear, we

Dance, Lalla, with nothing on
but air: Sing, Lalla,
wearing the sky.
Look at this glowing day! What clothes
could be so beautiful, or
more sacred?

For
God
To make love,
For the divine alchemy to work,
The Pitcher needs a still cup.
Why
Ask Hafiz to say
Anything more about
Your most
Vital
Requirement?

Enlightenment is the inevitable result of the utter absence of

There's no state in which one is seeing reality. WHO is seeing
WHAT? You can only BE real. (And that you are always.) The
problem exists only in thinking. Let all false ideas go, that's
all. There's no need for true ideas. (Since there are none.)

Do you think I know what I'm doing?
That for one breath or half-breath
I belong to myself?
As much as a pen knows what it's writing
or the ball can guess where it's going next.
