Night Sitting
The hermit doesn't sleep
at night,
in love with the blue of the
vacant moon.
The cool of the breeze
that rustles the trees
rustles him too.

@hridaya@mas.to I recently read a book about a Sufi woman who spent her nights looking at the night sky and being "rustled." I thought she was crazy for awhile and then thought about how it was in my youth lying and gazing at that sky at night.
