> LOVE DOGS
>
> One night a man was crying,
> Allah! Allah!
> His lips grew sweet with the praising,
> until a cynic said,
> "So! I have heard you
> calling out, but have you ever
> gotten any response?"
>
> The man had no answer to that.
> He quit praying and fell into a confused sleep.
>
> He dreamed he saw Khidr, the guide of souls,
> in a thick, green foliage.
> "Why did you stop praising?"
> "Because I've never heard anything back"
> "This longing
> you express >is< the return message."
>
> The grief you cry out from
> draws you toward union.
>
> Your pure sadness
> that wants help
> is the secret cup.
>
> Listen to the moan of a dog for its maser.
> That whining is the connection.
>
> There are love dogs
> no one knows the names of.
>
> Give your life
> to be one of them.
>
