I call upon the gods of the Northern Lights.
             We are here
What powers are these?
              Look.

You are a living force over the night sky.
            Watch what time we are moving in.
My grandchild died when a car hit him.
            The human span is its own time.

I am in the dark.

Do you love anything or anyone?
           No, we are activated like the butterflies.
Do you have anything to do with soul?
          Only what is initiated in you when you look.
