Let us pray to the God who holds us in the
hallow of His hands, to the God, who holds us
in the curve of Her arms,
To the God whose flesh is the flesh of hills and
hummingbirds and angleworms,
Whose skin is the color of an old Black woman
and a young white man; and the color of the
leopard and the grizzley bear and the green grass snake,
Whose hair is like the aurora borealis, rainbows,
waterfalls, and a spider's web,
Whose eyes sometimes shine like the Evening Star,
and then like fireflies,
and then again like an open wounds,
Whose touch is both the touch of life and the
touch of death,
and whose name is everyone's, but mostly mine.
-Max Coots
