For Rabbi Charlie Cytron-Walker and the people of Colleyville, Texas

“May this be the last whispered prayer of my life”

“There are no kings / I trust, only ruakh”

“my murmurs are threaded / with half-finished dream”

“Praise the nurses. Praise the doctors / Praise oxygen. Praise air.”

“Searching for ways to help us become more Holy”

“Protecting life is our most precious mitzvah”

This is a prayer for when I find myself consumed by reading a Facebook post, an article, or absorbed by my cell phone.

“We take note of / The hard work and creativity”
