Now!

Becoming student is not what I want from school.
Becoming certified, credentialed, scholarly - none of it.
Becoming a seeker of the unfamiliar and infinite, that would be lovely.




Someone should start laughing
Hafiz, translated Daniel Ladinsky
 

I have a thousand brilliant lies
For the question:

How are you?

I have a thousand brilliant lies
For the question:
What is God?

If you think that the Truth
can be known
From words,

If you think that the Sun and the Ocean

Can pass through that tiny opening
Called the mouth,

O someone should start laughing!
Someone should start wildly Laughing --
Now!
