Transcend

The poet urges total absorption in divine love, compelling seekers to transcend material rewards and render all illustrative metaphors irrelevant.

Inhale the rose so deep,
Just forget the fragrance.

Taste the drink so sweet,
Just ignore the cup.

Behold the flame so close,
Just transcend the moth’s embrace.

Endear the Lord so intense,
Just eschew the paradise at once.
