The Sinner’s Dance

Poison may aspire for honey and Jackals may cry like sheep, Nay even Abu Lahab’sheart once felt for the Beloved— writes Jaihoon

Poison will, at times,
Desire to become honey.

Rock may wither,
Like water, shiver.

Jackals too may cry;
Like sheep, they shy.

Even Bu Lahab,
The accursed, once felt
For Bin Abdullah,
His heart melt.

This sinner too craved once,
As with Mustafa’s love, his soul danced.
