You’re Here Because


It summons you! And you’ve appeared.
It’s not at all what you had feared.

You weren’t wrested from your sleep –
or hauled up from the briny deep –

or taken from a mother’s arms –
or wakened by abrupt alarms –

no terrors have affronted you.
You’re here because it wanted you.
