OPEN EYES
(to Javad Khakbaz)
In all existence
The eminence of breathed run
Despite apparent distance
Your soul tributes all the fun
Of life itself, yourself awake
Such infinite price
Shall never take or have forsaken
If life’s comprise
Must not deny
And tremble not
You live with open eyes
Beneath the skies
Above the plot
These many years
Of implacable growth
Along the tears
And laugh of joy
Solemn oath
A happy boy
We came to meet
Nice and neat
Forgetting almost
And for the most
The age such men employ
Giving grace and thanks
To those who dance
The free and merry few
I know you knew
That in all times
The best of rhymes
Was simply to keep your spot
For you are one who lives with open eyes
Beneath the skies
Above the plot
To submit and recall
Must you not have it all
Not at once, not in one day
For life has much to play
In its vivid yet occult sense
Your smile, a glance
May be our pay
While we pray
For renewed essence
Let it be said
Every token and bread
That you have gain on though
Are fund of you
As one may see
For what honey produces a bee
If not in sweet and sour shed
The ears you fed
The gentle words
May them be heard
When wished and wanted
Thus fear to all has haunted
Infortune those that recognize it not
But with all that
You stared the bat
And live with open eyes
Beneath the skies
Above the plot
