Absolutely Clear

ABSOLUTELY CLEAR

Don’t surrender your loneliness
So quickly.
Let it cut more deep.

Let it ferment and season you
As few human
Or even divine ingredients can.

Something missing in my heart tonight
Has made my eyes so soft,
My voice
So tender,

My need of God
Absolutely
Clear.

-Hafiz



another thing that was absolutely clear was who I would jot down for "close friend"
when we rented an instrument for Anna at a music store this week.
Bill, don't get your feelings hurt-- I just don't know your cell phone by heart so I could only put your wife down.
