I Never Quite Feel Right

I Never Quite Feel Right 

I never quite feel right until the effects of

wind reach my head

and kick it back like a mule might

whose hoofs just landed a clean solid blow.

My vision mount corrected in aimed

towards the heavens

and my ticket of intoxication firmly in hand

for at least an hour,

There seems so many interesting possibilities

But I wasn't fully aware of before.

– Hafiz (Daniel Ladinsky – Interpretation)
