Use Me, Use Me Up
Ode to greatness — A poem
Oh, Rumi!
Flow through me
Let me be your 21 Century muse.
May the words from my pen
be the thoughts in your head.
For new thinking,
new believing.
New but not new
for the story is as old
and has been told
Since creation itself
was birthed
from the belly
of The One.
The One that is of me and of you
O, Rumi!
Safe in the arms of the One Consciousness
cradled with your quill and your pot.
And your parchment
now paper
So much paper,
the skin of animals, now the belly of trees.
Fill me with you
And let me again
Share your words — sage words from the sage.
I am the pen,
the now keyboard
C-drive
Hard drive
Pen drive.
Technology.
Rumi!
You created in your desires of then
Ease for the us in the now.
So as we in the now
log onto all that is and was and continue to be,
I catch your thoughts.
The words not spent
when exhausted parchments
of then
could not share
the more.
The more that was in you.
So, Rumi
Flow through me,
And show me how
to turn words into ecstasy.
Rumi,
Use me.
