I Have Nothing

Peace, one and all…

I Have Nothing

I have nothing to offer You,
but this threadbare cloth,
this worn garment of me.

I have nothing to offer You,
but this unfolding spiral,
this rising, falling, and rising again.

I have nothing
to offer You,
but me.

(Abdur Rahman, 10th January 2008)
