Abdul-Ali Muhammad Poems

Lonely is The Traveler, who travels all alone
Lonely is the Traveler, who is without a home
Lonely is the Traveler, who has no one to care
Lonely is the Traveler, who has no one to share
...

I am what I am and can't change what I am
But can anybody tell me why I am?--
I'm of all things--
And all things are of me--
...

Room--so little room--can't move--yet I'm free
Sounds--there's no sounds--nothing--yet I hear
Dark--so dark--yet I see light
can't eat--or drink--yet I taste
...
