I'd like to meet:
TIRED OF SPEAKING SWEETLYLove wants to reach out and manhandle us, Break all our teacup talk of GodIf you had the courage and Could give the Beloved His choice, some nights, He would just drag you around the room By your hair Ripping from your grip all those toys int he world That bring you no joy.Love sometimes gets tired of speaking sweetly And wants to rip to shreds All your erroneous notions of truthThat make you fight within yourself, dear one, And with others,God wants to manhandle us, Lock us inside of a tiny room with Himself And practice his dropkick.The Beloved sometimes wants To do us a great favor:Hold us upside down And shake all the nonsense out.But when we hear He is in such a "playful drunken mood" Most everyone I know Quickly packs their bags and hightails it Out of town.-HAFIZ
