Did I conjure them?
I am no frequenter of cathedrals
and so -
perhaps -
they morphed to meet some errant need -
drifted into substantiality
as a rogue kangaroo
will grow
at night
from tendrils of tentacling fog.
.
Were they invoked?
Those sturdy ribs of stone that breathed
inhaled extended arching higher sharper -
s t r a i n e d then shuddering-groaned
.
in deep leviathan anguish.
