POEM: ‘Shabbat’
this morning
i am
at rest
hidden
beneath
a prayer
shawl
draped
over my
head
i am
chanting
your
name
the un
pronounceable
one
something
indistinct
whispering
through
my lips
ruach
the breath
you
gave me

I hope you appreciated this article. Before you go, I’d like to ask you to please support the Forward’s award-winning, nonprofit journalism during this critical time.
We’ve set a goal to raise $260,000 by December 31. That’s an ambitious goal, but one that will give us the resources we need to invest in the high quality news, opinion, analysis and cultural coverage that isn’t available anywhere else.
If you feel inspired to make an impact, now is the time to give something back. Join us as a member at your most generous level.
