  • Phenomenal and a great video to go with this exquisite poem. what are the last few lines? I don't recall those from the original poem.

  • when I was recording the voice over with Coleman Barks he said that he found out this was in the original poem after his translation and we added it to the short film.

  • OK, after looking on the web maybe it is San Fran, not Barcelona 1908. My bad.

  • I think Rumi works whether it's Barcelona or SanFran let alone Islam. Cross racial/gender/culture/religion - Rumi was really wired in. Just glad you liked the work.

    When I get back around to that place...I'll be completely sober."
