EVERYWHERE

by Hafiz

 

Running

Through the streets

Screaming,

 

Throwing rocks through windows,

Using my own head to ring

Great bells,

 

Pulling out my hair,

Tearing off my clothes,

 

Tying everything I own

To a stick,

And setting it on

Fire.

 

What else can Hafiz do tonight

To celebrate the madness,

The joy,

 

Of seeing God

Everywhere!
