Poem Published in Sufi Magazine

| Poetry |
My poem, The Language of Love, has been published in the latest issue of Sufi Magazine (Winter 2007, No. 74)
|
The language of love has no words
Listen
For God’s sake
The syntax of the heart’s longing
Is silence
Neither noun nor verb nor consonant
Why all this talk then, O Lover?
Sit and wait
Slow the heartbeat, ease the breath
Unless you become thought
Less
There is no room in you for Hu
Poetry is self-indulgence
Words a veil,
Silence, silence, silence
And the Beloved bursts forth
Everywhere
And all is Love
- Irving Karchmar, May 2007
