The sky
Is a suspended blue ocean.
The stars are the fish
That swim.

The planets are the white whales
I sometimes hitch a ride on,

And the sun and all light
Have forever fused themselves

Into my heart and upon
My skin.

There is only one rule
On this Wild Playground,

For every sign Hafiz has ever seen
Reads the same.

They all say,

"Have fun, my dear; my dear, have fun,
In the Beloved's Divine
Game,

O, in the Beloved's
Wonderful Game."

- Hafiz

Inanna

child of the Moon

steps her narrow foot
on the furred back
of a wild lapis lazuli bull

and she goes out
white-sparked, radiant
in the dark vault of
evening's sky
star-steps in the street
through the Gate of Wonder

- lines by Sumerian poet
Enheduanna, 2300 BCE
