An Astronomical Question

by Hafiz (Daniel Ladinsky)


Original Language English

What
Would
Happen if God leaned down

And gave you a full wet
Kiss?

Hafiz
Doesn't mind answering astronomical questions
Like that:

You would surely start
Reciting all day, inebriated,

Rogue-poems
Like
This.

-- from The Gift: Poems by Hafiz the Great Sufi Master, by Daniel Ladinsky
