Response from a Lousy Thief

The greatest thieves
always share their plunder
with their mates
Otherwise hoarding becomes just hard work
In fact,
If I could steal
a smile from my beloved's tender mouth,
or one moment of her ecstatic laughter
If I were to capture
a single moment of her Divine song...

I would share them ALL with YOU
because I've seen your Ruby Heart

Hafiz HAS taught me how to share
So,
Yes,
I WILL take the Moonlight back to my Tree house
and every night I will come back out and
dance in her exquisite beauty

Join me if you feel the sweet longing

because it's much more fun 

than dancing alone


  Hafiz will eventually find out
and that may get  nasty
He's REALLY tough for an old Sufi Saint
and when he found out
that I stole your picture
out of his coat
he chased after me

for miles
swinging a big stick.
