A Sufi Dream-Poem--Our purposefully "proto-conscious" UNI-ballish recycling?

By: Moji Agha
Started on Oct. 26, 2020

You know?
Being a microtubular cosmontologically proto-conscious
goofy sufi dervish,
"I have a dream" too. 

I tell the truth &...

This self-explanatory English poem of mine was originally drafted Monday (evening) August 5, 2013, while I was still in Independence, Missouri. I revised it a bit in November and December of 2014, while “traveling” in Arizona and New Mexico.

Letting my body perfectly free
As anonymous star in the sky’s sea 
While whirling, I closed my eyes
Lit the Holy Candle inside
As light as an air
When losing my existence 
As I am a wind
Or a particle of sand
Or a Dandelion seed flying in the air
In a...

One Sufi said I AM
and was killed for it
one psychologist said about 
God
"I don't believe, I know"
And was praised for it
yet both were uttering the 
same meaning 
it is not just about formal 
dogma such as Salat or

Those are of course fine
and a must
but...

Rumi was a Sufi mystic and a...

Beneath the shapeless sky of blue
In the valley lacking a hue

Was an isolated thin pond 
Where birds sang their short song to bond

Singing a song hoarse with throats sore
In the midst of their pond’s vapour 

And dunking their bodies with threads
Into the pond, scratching their...

by Rumi
loose translation by Michael R. Burch

Birdsong relieves
my deepest griefs:
now I'm just as ecstatic as they,
but with nothing to say!
Please universe,
rehearse
your poetry
through me!



I choose to love you in silence
by Rumi
loose translation/interpretation by Michael R. Burch

I choose to love you in silence
where there is no rejection;

Infectious!
by Hafiz
loose translation by Michael R. Burch

I became infected with happiness tonight
as I wandered idly, singing in the starlight.
Now I'm wonderfully contagious—
so kiss me!...

Wanderer,
free spirit,
gets around the endless world,
he relentlessly seeks happiness.
Open your eyes
encounter an aurora borealis
simple to perfection,
like a lost Eskimo
or as a Buddhist monk
who attains Nirvana somewhere in distant Burma.
Or rather as an aborigine influenced by mysticism
or a lost Sufi
among the vapors of the hookah,
the scents...
