Rumi in Reverse - Day 3

Ostentatious in their silence

the mooncalf and the mountebank

heavy with an unmasked intention

where is the light of the void

Come closer 

careen over the edge

Echo your screams

in the light

of

the void

NaPoWriMo 2023 Day 3

*Based on prompt to take a poem and write it in the inverse sentiment

 I selected this gem from Rumi

Secretly we spoke,

that wise one and me.

I said, Tell me the secrets of the world.

He said, Sh… Let silence

Tell you the secrets of the world.
