Like breath to suffocated hyperventilation, you are far.
Like bedrock earth to rapture’s mystery elation, you are far.
With ontological uniqueness to creation, you transcend.
From messiness of mud-pie I in recreation, you are far.
You flow like hypothermic cave-streams in pervasion immanent.
Persistent through my guts, you lead your deep invasion; you are far.
You’re ancient, old, antique—and yet no degradation lessens you.
When newness is considered, you delight – from its privation – you are far.
I weep for you; I wait for you in deep anticipation of your love.
I run to you, my journey lacks cessation: you are far.
My scripted song for you turns wrong; improvisation convolutes.
My waves of praises dissipate in radiation: you are far.
I lone consume your glory; forty days’ starvation kills my pain.
As closely I have exercised my own salvation, you are far.
You prowl, you hide, avoidant of my installation pantheon.
From love I might control, you prove your swift evasion: you are far.
I never deem the moment come my love’s occasion to redeem.
You whisper ever, “Don’t believe” – no hesitation – “you are far.”
You more than argue back with me—your prime persuasion woos my thoughts.
At wisdom’s head I prudent am, with reservation; you are far.
Beyond orgasmic chaos comes the rent sensation of your love.
I joy and pain in you while, I in immolation, you are far.
You swell around me, Love, and prove eradication of dis-ease.
You prick me deep, depravity’s inoculation; you are far.
I never touch you, yet I tickle supplications and you laugh.
You draw me ever closer, incensed sublimation— you are far.
Yes, you are far—so far I rot in desperation, far from you.
Your word has promised: “Worry not from preservation you are far.”
You know me: second son of second wife, my station poor and passed.
I’ll know you, nevermore to say in depravation you are far.
you are far (ghazal)
you are far (ghazal)
