“One sip of this wine
and you will go mad with drunkenness.
You will drop your masks
and tear your clothes — destroying
everything that separates you from the Lover.
Once you taste the fruit of this vine,
you will be kicked out of the city of yourself.
You will forget the world. You will forget yourself.
I tell you:
you will become a madman
who wanders the streets looking for the Lover
once you drink this Wine of Love.”
― Kamand Kojouri

and the cup-bearer pours.

but the cup-bearer knows:

then this tavern is love,
then this life is love.”
― Kamand Kojouri

I disappear in clouds of memories and dreams With my whole body where you just drink That bitter water in a glass bottle, Sitting on the sofa in your room and In those clouds my whole body.
Slowly slowly flies, like a feather, Like a free bird wherever she wants to fly,

- You and I”

I tumbled two pounds of chicken wings out of their brown paper wrappings and into the waiting bowl, where I kneaded the pungent mixture into them, squeezing the spices into the meat like an experienced massage therapist.
