An Invocation<\/b><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Air, the wind in your hair and breath in your lungs<\/p>\n
recalls my scent to you, across the miles<\/p>\n
carries my voice to your ears,<\/p>\n
Remember<\/i><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Fire, the sun on your face,<\/p>\n
the heat of your skin and in your sex<\/p>\n
recalls my touch to you<\/p>\n
conveys my desire<\/p>\n
Remember<\/i><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Water, the rain on your cheek<\/p>\n
the rush of the river, the suck of the sea<\/p>\n
the thrum of blood in your veins and seed in your loins<\/p>\n
recalls the pull of me to you<\/p>\n
delivers the tears of my heart<\/p>\n
Remember<\/i><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Earth, where your feet are planted,<\/p>\n
the stone and metal of the walls where you live<\/p>\n
the gravel and soil, concrete and rock<\/p>\n
the bones in your body<\/p>\n
recalls the steps we took together,<\/p>\n
conveys my steadfast will<\/p>\n
Remember<\/i><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Love, by the maelstrom and the gale<\/p>\n
by lightning strike and lava flow<\/p>\n
by the rising river, by tidal wave<\/p>\n
by sundering ground and falling walls<\/p>\n
by all the chaos of my shattered world<\/p>\n
I cry, across Armageddon itself:<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Come back to me<\/i><\/p>\n
come back to me<\/i><\/p>\n
come.<\/i><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
