if i were to write a poem
like rumi
i would ask you
why you are twisting
your life
into a task
i would request you
to put away
all that feels like work
and to fire the businessman
and the politician
from the negotiations
of who and what you can love
and how much
i would implore you
to dance and sing
with drunken abandon
and to kiss the ground
in a thousand different ways
i would beseech you
to forget
the names of your gods
but like a laughing madman
refer to every living stone
and breathing moment
as your Beloved
-jaysi
