Key To Her Heart

In your hands, 
Heartless one, where 
 
She placed it last, 
Will be the last place 
 
You look.

  1. Wonderful! I've been reading Tony Barnstone's translations of ghazals by Ghalib, as this poem brings Ghalib's spiral staircase of words to mind. Ex.:

    No, she is not bad,
    just stubborn.
    She keeps thousands of promises
    when she forgets not to.

  2. Exquisite Ghalib and I'm honored. Thank you, Joe.
