-for Faerie Friend A.


Do you ever feel sing-sang-sung,

like all your dreams have already

unspun?

Girl, meet me by the wishing-well—

Won't you wonder if you don't?

I'll cast us both a star-crash spell!

Pull every light down from cold-hearted skies

So you remember how moonlight feels

and all the ways silver falls and sunlight sighs.

Do you ever feel sing-sang-sung

Like all your dreams have come

undone?

Woman, meet me by the wishing-well—

Won't you wonder if you don't?

I'll cast us both a star-crash spell!

Cinders and fireflies shine just the same,

So burn your spark to the quick of time!

Never let your ember shadow and tame.

Do you ever feel sing-sang-sung

Like all your dreams aren't true yet

begun?

Old friend, meet me by the wishing-well—

Won't you wonder if you don't?

I'll cast us both a star-crash spell!

Let's wander the whole world over until we know

Beyond anatomies of wing and mortal bone

the deep soul song of glitter and glow.
