Love is the Reality, Poetry is the Drum Calling Us to It. Rumi img src=http://i101.photobucket.com/a

About Me

Mystical, compassionate man who appreciates inner beauty and radiance and strives to be softened by life, not hardened. I yearn to restore the heart's and eye's exquisite tender landscape; to untie the knot of the mind's suffering. Remembering there is but one rule on this Wild Playground, "Have Fun". I am the Golden Drum near the campsite of Love that so sweetly plays, and is immaculate to touch. A thousand naked amorous ones dwell in ancient caves beneath my eyelids. The sun and the moon shiver when I drop my pants. Beware of this potent lover. But know that I have found the power to say "no" to any actions that might harm myself or another. I have eyes burning like coal for the truth. My ears in their precision can hear even the Buddha sing. I am full of love tonight. Come look into these ancient eyes and let's go off sailing, my dear, with our spirits intertwined.
