Gamblers and Spirits

August 27th


It starts in the night, under the moon still lighting up the sky.

Then in the morning before the sun sends light into the day

I'm still tossing and turning.


I am a beggar with a bowl in my hands

asking for prayers.



"Gamble everything for love, if you're a true human being.

If not, leave this gathering." Rumi


I pray to be a gambler.

I pray to have the courage to feel this love

and let it break my heart over and over for you.


"Stop the words now

Open the window in the center of your chest

and let the spirits fly in and out." Rumi


I pray for the flight of our spirits.
