The I of the Beholder
By weighing the count of forgetting against remembering, this poem proves that math always fails once the self dissolves in

“
The moment lovers overhear the mention of their Beloved, their hearts overwhelm with ecstasy unable to bear the bliss
No sooner the body heard
‘Meem,’
The soul swung:
“Mmm…”
Hey, Heaven’s Beloved!
Your evergreen thoughts
Make me crazy;
Your praised name
Gives much ecstasy.
Be it the spring of joy
Or the season of cry
When arrives the blessed moment,
About you one makes a comment:
My half-opened eyes close,
Unable to bear the brutal bliss.
My lips then move
At a moderate pace:
“Upon Muhammad be
Blessings and peace.”
