paradosso…

chaste victorian waysome primal wayGod I want you
in some primal, wild way
animals want each other.
Untamed and full of teeth.

God I want you,
In some chaste,
Victorian way.
A glimpse of your ankle
just kills me.

sea full of pearls…

Lsea full of pearlsisten, O drop, give yourself up without regret,
and in exchange gain the Ocean.
Listen, O drop, bestow upon yourself this honour,
and in the arms of the Sea be secure.
Who indeed should be so fortunate?
An Ocean wooing a drop!
In God’s name, in God’s name, sell and buy at once!
Give a drop, and take this Sea full of pearls.

– Rumi –
