God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I can't change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference

I turn to the crowd as they're watching
They're sitting all together in the dark in the warm
I wanted to be in there among them
I see how their eyes are gathered into one
And then she turns to me with her hand extended
Her palm is split with a flower with a flame
- Suzanne Vega (1987)
