What good is a book of poems if you are
reading it while riding
in the back of a wagon that is heading toward the edge of a cliff?
A greater awareness is what our relationship is supposed to be about.
I was hoping something I might have said by now could have made you stop, get your bearings,
and start traveling in a direction that will yield lots of fruit. May be you are? That would be nice.
From A Year with Hafiz- Daily Contemplations Daniel Landinsky
