This is by my dear friend Jess Jones in Portland, OR and she is an amazing emerging artist. I am blessed to own this piece called "Pyre", based on the Hafiz poem below....I hope you enjoy! Can anyone help me get this pic posted on here? Not sure if this will work...sigh...suggestions? Thanks!
Love is
The funeral pyre
Where I have laid my living body.
All the false notions of myself
That once caused fear, pain,
Have turned to ash
As I neared God.
What has risen
From the tangled web of thought and sinew
Now shines with jubilation
Through the eyes of angels
And screams from the guts of
Infinite existence
Itself.
Love is the funeral pyre
Where the heart must lay
Its body.
