I want burning

Sometimes I want to sink into the hot molten core of my aloneness
and disappear into that burning.


...That broken-open lowliness is the Reality, not the language. 
Forget phraseology. I want burning, burning.

Be Friends
with your burning, burn up your thinking and your forms of expression...

When you eventually see through the veils to
how things really are, you will keep saying
again and again, "This is certainly not like
we thought it was!"

- Rumi, "Moses and the Shepherd"
