...prayer

Today,
   For what I am that I ought not to be,
       Forgive me
   For what I am not that I ought to be,
       Forgive me

Be with my mouth in what it speaks.
Be with my hands in what they do.
Be with my mind in what it thinks.
Be with my heart in what it feels

Work in me
     through me
          for me
               in spite of me.
