What comes after Happy Hour Vinyasa.

I can't get enough Hafiz tonight. Hafiz and wall-supported headstands. What can I say. It's a pretty wild Friday night.



Now is the Time

Now is the time to know 
That all that you do is sacred. 

Now, why not consider 
A lasting truce with yourself and God. 

Now is the time to understand 
That all your ideas of right and wrong 
Were just a child's training wheels 
To be laid aside 
When you finally live 
With veracity 
And love. 

Hafiz is a divine envoy 
Whom the Beloved 
Has written a holy message upon. 

My dear, please tell me, 
Why do you still 
Throw sticks at your heart 
And God? 

What is it in that sweet voice inside 
That incites you to fear? 

Now is the time for the world to know 
That every thought and action is sacred. 

This is the time 
For you to compute the impossibility 
That there is anything 
But Grace. 

Now is the season to know 
That everything you do 
Is sacred.

Chain You to My Body

All
These words
Are just a front.
What I would really like to do is
Chain you to my body, 
Then sing for days 
And days and
Days
About
God.
