In Chapter 35, Poem 64 of Attar's Mokhtar Nameh, the poet explores the theme of the lover's heart becoming entrapped and fragmented within the beloved's cascading, curled tresses.

Key Themes:

• Heart's Fragmentation: The heart falls into the beloved's tresses in 'a hundred places,' illustrating how the lover's soul is completely scattered, divided, and ensnared across the numerous bends of the hair.
• The Cascading Tresses: The poet describes the tips of the tresses curling so intensely that they eventually fall 'to the feet.' In Persian poetic tradition, tresses cascading to the feet symbolize their extreme length, beauty, and the overwhelming, inescapable nature of the beloved's allure.
