Out Beyond

[tastes_of_honey]

"Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing,
there is a field. I'll meet you there.

When the soul lies down in that grass,
the world is too full to talk about.
Ideas, language, and even the phrase 'each other'
doesn't make any sense."
-- Rumi

"Nice poem, though I don't quite get it. I should work on being able to have deep thoughts."

Lots of chicks love men with depth. Once you fake that, you got it made.

For me the poem is about how the world gets so much larger and more interesting when you think outside the box and color outside the lines. No fences. Let's all get there! That kinda thing.
