I don't know Baharak...but WOW to him for inspiring such a poem from you. I read this poem as a reminder that we are all one that everything flows through us and around us. I think the religious might think of the holy spirit when reading this. A conceiving of the origin of poetry as well. Thanks for sharing this Daniel. I read this as somewhat of a departure from how you have been writing of late. Take care.

It's true as you say this poem is a departure. It came out of my Heart Chakra instead being born out of my hard rational head like Athena in full armor from the head of Zeus. I think your New Testament reference to the Holy Spirit is very apt. I meant this poem to be a release of Light for Baharak, a young woman in Tehran who has a beautiful soul.Thanks for reading with such creative perception, my friend - with two names.
