DEEWANGEE - Sufism 101

Posted: Jan 16, 2009 Fri 10:02 pm     Views: 275   

DEEWANGEE - Sufism 101

But the body breaks ground,
exists, achieves, CONFRONTS.

The body is neutral
like a dagger.
It can kill, but not just anyone -
It can die
but not like love, that stays.

Can the body make neutral suggestion
The Dervesh challenges this:
the body is a dream,
it is not here to make moves on you
It is here to dream
the body is a dream of the dream

by this do you mean God?

I only mean: EXIST.
The black grace of the DAY-DREAM
for god sake, get it straight, FANTASTICAL
Imagine the Yeatsian Swans, imagine for once
how day fell to the dawn..
of the dream, which is the dream of itself


The mist makes one go mad
don't look at the moon, again and again
dear god, you'll go mad, once mad, they will say:

His real name isn't,
what it wasn't
It now is, what it is.
Then you will enchant, and forgive me,
but this isn't an easy take
It blakes the existence out of its pair.
