just because there’s no other recourse,
just because the only way to rise up
is to sink down into the rooted core of truth
If everyone learns how to pray
just because all other power
has been stripped from us,
that may be the way that we prevail
Prayer will rise like tides, like floods
and change everything —
our sense of self, community,
and landscape,
prayer will render other powers
irrelevant
as it sweeps through us. You’ll see.
