More pseudo-crap from Costi

"The book of Sufi wisdom
Is not written on the blank page,
But on a heart white as virgin snow.
Scholars pursue penmarks.
Sufis track footprints in the snow,
Like hunters tracing a musk–deer’s trail,
Until they breathe in the sweet scent
That the deer exudes from its navel,
And rush to catch their quarry.

Style remains mysterious, however hard we try to study or explain it. There is no teaching it. It is not science. If we want to grasp it, be inspired by it, we should proceed like the Sufi in search of wisdom in this Rumi poem. It is in our hearts, not on the pages of a book that it is written. That is where it proceeds from and that is where it may be received. A state of grace, a state of the spirit whose manifestations in the concrete world remain elusive - the footprints in the snow, the scent in the air... Just enough to let us know it is real!"

No, no, taught means tight.  A taught sock indicates a gentleman so marvelously nourished and muscular that their calf and ankle actually fill knit hosiery.   I manage to keep my socks up with garters (rubber bands), but they still flap in the breeze around my emaciated leg.  I tried shrinking the socks in the dryer, but this just ruined their elasticity altogether.  I just have no idea how those colonists managed to look so dashing in their britches!
