Mirth

Short black hair of fire,

Covered from the eyes of unwanted desire;

The more the look casts,

The more hiddenness blasts;

This fire is provoking,

Yet there's no need poking;

The eye is destined to wait,

But how soon it gets late.

The virgin snow was deflowered,

The pale-faced fall was jailed,

Footprints were spring's;

Summer smiled.

I said "I am full of endless hopes"

She said "check"

I said "I am full of hopeless ends"

She said "check"

I said "I found you in the end of far"

She said "check"

I said "I knew your heart's door's ajar"

She said "check"

I said "I love you"

She said "check"

I had nothing more to say

She said:

"CHECKMATE"

Randy opened the door and entered the room

Honey locked the door after going in

Randy sat on a chair and drank a drink

Honey opened the wardrobe and put her hat in it

Randy stood up and threw his coat on the ground

Honey was about to strip her skirt

Randy drew the curtains

Honey took a shower

Randy shaved

Honey put perfume on her body

Randy took off all his clothes

Honey had done it before

Randy went to bed

So did Honey

Randy was really randy

Honey was really honey

Randy needed something

Honey needed something

Randy turned right

Honey turned left

Randy's room in floor 16

Was really warmer than Honey's in 6th floor

I look at you to only admire

Fills my heart with blazing fire

And has made my life an utter satire

               Can I get over you ?

Thought you're my shelter and nest

But for you I didn't do my best

And it's caused a pressure on my chest

               Can I get over you ?

I was flying in the world of fantasy

Now I've lost all my ecstasy

And I'm writhing under my privacy

               Can I get over you ?

Now it's heartache I'm feeling

There, bells of your victory are pealing

And with one sentence I love dealing:

               I can't get over you . . . . .

Drinking a cup of thought

I felt my guilty dream

I called my inner feelings

Someone picked up the phone

It was animal instinct !

The sky is as immense as the sight your eyes see

 And thousand of stars by descending of your eyelids martyred be

 Go over the tomb of your heart, for

By each star my heart will find thee

                        Original poem in Persian by: Seyyed Mohammad Javad Hashemi

Gambled I on thine honesty

I thee lost

So green, so grey
I preen, then pray
Blood does flood my eyes
My pray goes astray

Time travels too fast
Alone I am in a school of wish
Rusted is the chain of life
Amorously death gazes at me
Number one is my mark in sigh
Erosion swallows my tender dream
Hope ! A green light glimmers

His gaze responded

I winced

He frowned back

His coldness showed his sorrow

His oldness, His morrow

I smiled

He denied

Again I tried

Again he defied

I gave him a fist poke

The mirror broke
