"If anyone asks you
how the perfect satisfaction
of all our sexual wanting
will look, lift your face
and say,
Like this.
When someone quotes the old poetic image
about clouds gradually uncovering the moon,
slowly loosen knot by knot the strings
of your robe.
Like this.
If anyone wonders how Jesus raised the dead,
don’t try to explain the miracle.
Kiss me on the lips.
Like this. Like this.
-Rumi"
Item Special Note
"I have a friend who has AIDS and I know how difficult it is to live with it. Aside from how fragile it can make you physically, society can make you mentally fragile as a consequence. I want to help and I want to change the world's attitude towards AIDS victims by doing so." - Melike Kocak
