The Unwanted Pure

The Unwanted Pure

 

Everyone wants pure wine
Everyone wants pure gold
Everyone wants pure pearls

 

But
no one wants you pure

 

Lies, deceit, and cunning
Are the commodities of today’s bustling market

 

Your gift
Has no seal of approval
Your actions and reactions
march to a different beat than this market

 

You have no buyer—
O bankrupt soul 

 

 

نابِ نامطلوب

 

 

همه شرابِ ناب می‌خواهند
همه زرِ ناب می‌خواهند
همه مرواریدِ ناب می‌خواهند

 

اما
کسی تو را ناب نمی‌خواهد

 

دروغ و غش و نیرنگ
متاع بازارِ پرمشتریِ امروزند

 

تحفهٔ تو
مُهر استاندارد ندارد
فعل و انفعالت
با ریتم این بازار هم‌راستا نیست

خریداری نداری
ای ورشکسته

 

سهیل خداپرستی
