words

"borrowed" this from poet marne kilates's facebook status update or whatever you call those things:

"The Quran tells us, 'even if all the trees in the world were made into pens and all the oceans in it made into ink, with seven more oceans to multiply it, still the words of God would not come to end.' It's what poets dream about—that the entire universe is neverending revelation and everyone with their ear to the ground—literally—might luck into prophecy." —Kazim Ali, "Faith & Silence"
