prayer
don't go with a heavy heart, no, go
with sure steps, go with solace
knowing anywhere you go you are
yourself there, knowing anywhere
you go you go there knowingly, go
there knowing yourself, go there
knowing you've earned it, go there
underestimating the risk, like a new
wild animal into the wild, a wilder
version of yourself, instinctual and
calm, go there willingly with your
free heart or go there not at all, no,
do not go timidly into that ancient
wildness leaping in yourself, go now
