the cocoa of the sabiqun

life is a cup
of hot hot chocolate
the cocoa of experiences
the formless milkiness that is you

for most
HC is about mixing and meshing
for the fortunate fortunate...few
HC is a tadbit more

not a cup, but a mug
a big green garrulous mug
fit for both Hercules and Rustam
or both Muhammad and Jesus ibn Maryam

cocoa hardly suffices
there are those who
seek the cinnamon, masala,
marshmallow, and cream oh so whipped

these are the saabiqoon
those who are drawn near
even after tasting the bliss of choc
even after filling their cup to the brim
