Turning on all
Rebellion against rebellion itself
The fire angels
Burned in tallow candles
Enumerating the night

Spells cast
By the Ouija Board
And unheard of
Whispers from beyond
Upthrust
In the nude light

Shells of special consciousness
Pealed
Like evaporating vapors
Plunged into the darkest night
