Rumi

This is how a human being can change:

There's a worm addicted to eating

grape leaves.

Suddenly, he wakes up,

call it Grace, whatever, something

wakes him, and he's no longer

a worm.

He's the entire vineyard,

and the orchard too, the fruit, the trunks,

a growing wisdom and joy

that needs not devour.
