art
Poetry and art go hand in hand; in fact, a poem is just art in the written form.
A Journey Beyond the World
Shah Nimatullah Wali, a 14th-century Persian poet and Sufi master, is known for his deeply spiritual and mystical poetry. His verses often reflect the idea of the soul's journey beyond the material world, seeking divine truth and ultimate union. In this ghazal, he portrays life as a fleeting passage, where the soul moves like a traveler, unbothered by worldly struggles. With imagery of the sea, open plains, and the path of truth, the poem invites the reader to rise above earthly concerns and embrace the spiritual journey toward the divine.

The Wounds of Separation
Vahshi Bafqi, a 16th-century Persian poet, is renowned for his deeply emotional and sorrowful poetry. His verses often capture the torment of love, the pain of longing, and the agony of unfulfilled desires. In this ghazal, the poet expresses the grief of a love lost, where the beloved has departed, leaving the lover in tears and despair. Through vivid imagery of sleepless nights, unending sorrow, and the plea for kindness, the poem beautifully encapsulates the universal ache of separation and the desperate hope for a reunion.

The Troubadour
His voice had an edge as hard as his life, Like whiskey and asphalt, distilled; Face lined like a map of where all he'd been; A head full of dreams, unfulfilled. He played his three chords and versions of truth; His life spilling out in his song. As long as he had his guitar and heart, He figured he could do no wrong. Up on center stage, his face came alive, The music flowed through him like wine. He could shatter your heart and then heal it; With just a few words in a line. He played his three chords and versions of truth; His life spilling out in his song. As long as he had his guitar and heart, He figured he could do no wrong. He offered his tunes as gifts to the world And wrapped melodies with his love. And, although he lived simply, down to earth, He seemed as though sent from above. He played his three chords and versions of truth; His life spilling out in his song. As long as he had his guitar and heart, He figured he could do no wrong.

A Controlled State Of Mind
We held galaxies in our hands. In that moment, we understood forever. Molding life, changing history. We were forever. Or at least we could be. Glistening street lights shining through the rain on the window. We are human, we are temporary. But I’d like to hope that someday I could live in that moment forever.

"A DYSTOPIAN NIGHTMARE DREAM". Content Warning.
I dreamt this nightmare in 2023. I had all these visuals in my head for a week. I decided to create my dream as we are now living in a dystopian nightmare. I confess I added the visuals with rainbows, dancing, and as people laughed and smiled again.
