Summoning

I summon thee

Not as the veil thins

Or ghouls descend

Beneath a witching sky


I summon thee

Not as spirits soar

Or blue moons rise

On wings of lilting wind


I summon thee

In ordinary times

With ordinary prayers

On remnants of songs

Under Carolina blue skies

Filled with phantom rumbling laughter

You live
