Ghazal 14

Wings are like dust for the winds to carry
otherwise feathers would be impatient and strengthless

What basic beauty approaches like this
not even dust on her path only shadows of flowers

Those who are drunk have seen a flower’s shadow
else there would be nothing not even dust in the taverns

I have been humbled by these explosions of love
in this room not even dust just desire to construct

Now these words are I know are a simple pastime
not even dust could be gained by writing
