A Prayer

prayer magic
isn't what we think
isn't what we wish
isn't to harness G-d's power

then teach us to pray
so that we know
so that we recognize
so that we experience

the real power and strength
of mercy
of grace
of death

our death, and G-d's

...

but we do not,
can not, ourselves
overcome death

so we pray
and in praying, let us enter
into where we're already
welcomed ~ the midst of the

divine
