1. I'm amazed by women - when divorced
Death drinks from the cups of her life

2. And when that passes, she returns to her husband
Forgetting what she endured in childbirth

3. So since my mind raced at her quick turning
And excess expanding and contracting

4. I rode the camel of objection deliberately
And came to her asking about her objection

5. "O you who tasted the bitterness of death
Did you obey the soul's desires when it rose?"

6. She said, "Be gone - the wisdom of God is with those
Pleased by the survival of life, not its extinction."
