introduction



Introduction: The Meaning Behind invocation its saying that when the winter comes you cant really do much and your house kind of hibernates

Invocation

BY DENISE LEVERTOV
Silent, about-to-be-parted-from house.
Wood creaking, trying to sigh, impatient.
Clicking of squirrel-teeth in the attic.
Denuded beds, couches stripped of serapes.

Deep snow shall block all entrances
and oppress the roof and darken
the windows.    O Lares,
don’t leave.
The house yawns like a bear.
Guard its profound dreams for us,
that it return to us when we return.
