I dream of being me --
	  without apology, without fear,
	I dream of being me
	  to lend a hand and ear:

	To do and feel the joy
	  of free and equal sharing:
	The liberty of love,
	  of passion, and of caring --

	For the world such as I know it,
	  plant and animal alike,
	For the hungry and the soulless;
	  for --

	I dream of being me,
	  not of being you or you,
	But of being me and letting
	  all the other me's be me's;

	Letting be, for theirs is theirs,
	  letting go, where their cares
	Ain't mine, and tending, tending
	  the liberties.

	Let me be me.  I dream ...
