The Rift

Re: Epiphany

har nafas avaze eshgh miresad az chap va rast
ma be falak miravim azme tamasha ke rast``

Each breath is a song of love From left and right, pass us by
We’ll return to the world above Such fate no-one can defy

~ Rumi

Oh me! oh life!

Walt Whitman

O me! O life!... of the questions of these recurring;
Of the endless trains of the faithless—of cities fill’d with the foolish;
Of myself forever reproaching myself, (for who more foolish than I, and who more faithless?)
Of eyes that vainly crave the light—of the objects mean—of the struggle ever renewed;
Of the poor results of all—of the plodding and sordid crowds I see around me;
Of the empty and useless years of the rest—with the rest me intertwined;
The question, O me! so sad, recurring—What good amid these, O me, O life?

Answer.
That you are here—that life exists, and identity;
That the powerful play goes on, and you will contribute a verse.

its the edge of a precipice or at times the corner of your roam, the deck of a ship or a peacfull bench... in a far away park, in an empty church or a graveyard thou.. it can be anything, any place and any state of mind which may enlighten you with the answer to all your questions..... and the solution to all your problems.

great work Saad...

``The Rift
Saad Siddiqui

Have you ever stood at the edge of a precipice and sensed the crevasse within, the trembling plates of the subterranean heart. Across the chasm lies the ‘new world’, the answer to all your questions, the solution to all your problems.

Have you ever considered such a prodigious leap? Not just a step to take you to the other side. A step to jolt the very foundations of your present existence````(SS)

well said Saad -- great piece Saad --

listen Pakistan -- listen to Saad Siddiqui -- take that LEAP Pakistan -- from Jihadism to Secularism -- ``Across the chasm lies the new world`` -- India -- shake hands with India -- -- for friendship & bhaai chara -- break bread together with India -- and usher into the NEW WORLD of IT -- the world of science culture market economy but -- NO Bollywood please...

take that step ...``A step to jolt the very foundation of your PRESENT existence`` -- into a fortress of IndoPak friendship -- together -- as another great power of the world ....for GOOD....

now hamidm will ask Romair what Nasah had for breakfast.....:-) -- BTW where IS hamidm? and where is romair?

Saad

Have you leaped yet? Or are you just asking questions at the moment. You forget two important aspects of this leaping business, Fate and Fear, the two forces that dictate the direction of our lives.

Again, Have you leaped yet, or are you just pondering on the precipice. And Saad what happens when you get tired of the ``New World``. Will you leap again. Why not deal with this world, fight your battles here? Anyways

Happy Leaping

Regards

The guy wearing the T-Shirt that reads ``New World`` on the back.

Heavy, cumbrous words. Uninteresting core.
