Being.

Curtis, Jemez Mother and Child, 1912

may i be i is the only prayer -- not may i be great or good or beautiful or wise or strong

today ... may i be me ... five-foot eleven, brown hair/eyed, smart, serious, happy, frustrated, impatient, joyful, running, sleeping, smiling, eating, trying, believing, listening, being & becoming.

- e.e. cummings
