Poem: Rumi, The Glance, Songs of Soul-Meeting

Listening to the prophet David play,
psalms and music, a strange excitement

came, presence and patience. Egyptian
graneries full of grain and Joseph's

handsomeness. Actual sun and nearness.
Sky, undecided; earth, silent; in this

precarious unknowing we live love
doesn't want to say the name of Hu.

You stay concealed. A falcon lights.
How far away? Mount Sinai under Moses.

The indications are that you are the one

who appears, not again, but continuously.
