A Divine Answer
How do you open perseverance to a man
Whose eyes have seen nothing but the calm of summer
How do you pacify a restless spirit
Whose demons have lured it in the manner of saints
How do you seek integrity at the dark hour
When all the air around you is suffused with darkness
How do you find the door to perpetual zenith
When perspective confuses like three hundred crescents in the sky
How do you force the punisher within you to vanish
When everything you feel is caused by his hands
How do you discern the scent of a flower
When your senses are nurtured by the speed of storms
How do you learn to perforate the fire
When fire is made out of a sharp desire
How do you sever your speech from the tedious gripes
When sunsets tremble like unaided fish and sorrow waits like night
How do you put up with the black clouds strewing shrill thunders
When your defense is the ceiling of cotton
How do you withdraw despair from the automatic falls
When your courage is flooded with buoyant promises
