Emily O'Dell whirling on her roof in Harlem
Dance, when you’re broken open.
Dance, if you’ve torn the bandage off.
Dance in the middle of the fighting.
Dance in your blood.
Dance when you’re perfectly free.
–Rumi
Many thanks to Huffington Post for publishing my new piece “On Wheels and Whirling”–about wheelchairs and Sufi whirling.
Whirl on, world, whirl on!
