WHITE MOODS: 1. PRAYER by BENJAMIN ROSENBAUM

First Line: BEAT ME WITH THE WINDS OF A HUNDRED AUTUMNS
Last Line: O TENDEREST COMRADE!

BEAT me with the winds of a hundred autumns.
Stagger me with the colors of dawns and dusks.
Torment me with the faces of women.
Be merciless to me in the ways of beauty,
O tenderest comrade!
