SUFI BLUES
How does it rain?
You rap a bead of sweat on your forehead
How does lighting strike?
You glance at me, and lower your eyes
How does day meet night?
You veil your face with hair
Where does music get its magic?
You lace your talk with honey
What good is yearning?
You snuff a candle with your robe's hem
