Vessel
After Sleep Token
You pray for rain,
for love, for sleep.
You worship Creation
like it is all you have
ever known. You sing
for deliverance. You have
no face, no name,
no home but this place
you call Eden.
You speak in symbols
unknown. I have seen you
at the witching hour
at my door– or maybe you
have always been there,
in the face of the moon,
just waiting for me to look up.

“Witching hour” is always a good phrase, and I love the ending!
