I ask the Spirit of all that is,
all that I know to be true,
to deliver me to where
it’s not irresponsible
to be fearless,
where it’s not ignorant
to be unalarmed,
where none of those accusing voices
have any relevance at all

In the name of
all that I’ve ever lived for,
let me recognize
the power and will of Life
to hold us precious,
perfect as we are,
eternal, pure.
