On Composing Prayers

Institutional prayers belong on a shelf I can compose them much better myself... I am but a tiny speck, you God are immense -- Too obviously true; that'll never do, so hence I cry out to You, but words escape me -- Hmm, someone's already written this plea -- I search for You in places hidden deep away -- No, the Lord's found everywhere and every day You come to me unbidden by cover of night -- Would God ever want to cause me fright?... The Lord is my Shepherd I shall not want... Now, that sounds so elegant -- Words that I thought were so easy to write Only true genius can produce such delight
