The Sun In Drag

The Sun In Drag
by
Hafiz


You are the Sun in drag.
You are God hiding from yourself.
Remove all the "mine"---that is the veil.


Why ever worry about
Anything?
Listen to what your friend Hafiz
Knows for certain:


The appearance of this world
Is a Magi's brilliant trick, though its affairs are
Nothing into nothing.
You are a divine elephant with amnesia
Trying to live in an ant
Hole.
Sweetheart, O sweetheart
You are God in
Drag!

Oh. That Hafiz.
