WHAT'S COOKING

A blessing based upon Psalm 58

When you feel your words have been bound up inside you

May the Divine give you the right words to speak

so that justice wins the day

and violence loses

May those false tapes that have playing in your head

for what seems like forever

cease their lies

as if falling on deaf ears

May you never reach the point where you feel

completely torn down

Instead, may you be continually renewed

like a fresh mountain spring

May those arrows of fear and doubt

always miss their mark

and never be allowed to give birth

to another day of pain

Look, the Divine is cooking up something more for you

greater than anything you could have imagined for yourself

Be prepared to flourish, once again
