✈️ 🌌
Notes from a reading of Umar Khayyam’s Rubaiyat on a plane that ended up being a lil something.
Less successful than dust wanting to settle beneath a working wheel
Or satan’s attempts to rust Ali’s sword of Indian sparkling steel
Bridle the winds and attempt setting limits on the sea
Tempt wandering clouds and air to no longer be free
The star of destiny has thrown the noose of sunset upon the roof
The impact of colliding orbits surviving - is plenty of proof
When Saturn rises with its baleful power
When the fruits aren’t ripe and the grapes are all sour
Don’t worry mere jaan - here comes Jupiter’s hour
