Please give me the Magic that Works
Please carry me into
and enfold me within
the Magic that Helps

Please grant me the Magic that Works
Please bless me and keep me
in the Light of your prison
Please hold me and know me
in the Light of your wisdom

Please guide us through the strings
that wayward loosed
unturns the pirate’s reel
and wellrun returns
us to the commonweal

Please help me
Please help us
How can we do what is best for everyone?

Please help us live for the Magic that Works
Please help us let go
of the tantrums the stick
the gumdrops that squeak
the glumdums that steal

A Magic that Works
A discipline that’s freedom
a Work that moves beyond itself,
carrying us beyond our narrow selves,
communing us with the wider view,
with the greater smile,
with the truer love
