Or rather as an aborigine influenced by mysticism or a lost Sufi among the vapors of the hookah, the scents of a forgotten time that leave behind only the perfume of...

Rumi Translation: the Field
The Field by Rumi loose translation/interpretation by Michael R. Burch Far beyond sermons of right and wrong there's a sunlit field. I'll meet you there.

Premium Member Sufi Dream Poem-Theory: Cosmontological Uni-Ball
Cosmology + Ontology = Cosmontology NEW Cosmontological Principle: Be SO SO humble! >>> SEE NOTE BELOW A Sufi Dream-Poem--Our purposefully "proto-conscious" UNI-ballish recycling? By: Moji Agha Started on Oct. 26, 2020 You know? Being a microtubular cosmontologically proto-conscious goofy sufi dervish, "I have a dream" too.
