FORGIVENESS


Forgiveness is the get to get.
Forget everything else as Hafiz
the Persian poet from way back
in the 1300’s put it. “Forgiveness
is the cash you need” “to craft
your falcon wings / and return
to your true realm, our true realm
of divine freedom.”* Jesus got
this - along with Hafiz - along
with anyone who wants true
freedom and to live with empty 
hands without rocks.
