Iftaari


She breaks her fast
Precisely at the dawn of my longing
With an irresistibly prolonged hug

An unusually long summer day
No longer remains long
Like the painting of the sunset
Smaller than the real view
But seductively beautiful every time we see it

Steadfastly we follow every sacred intimate ritual
We raise our hands together
Earnestly beseeching what is ours
Before we prostrate
With dutiful consummate obedience
In complete submission
