First line fifth stanza, did you mean “summon”?
This was fascinating…and as Tim said…very spooky.
I love the idea of “stalking my vision”!

Suffering from dementia is hard – for the patient and for their family as well. I know a woman who stood by her mentally disturbed husband strong as a rock. She told me, ‘I know who he is at his core, that’s enough for me!
Thank you so much for reading and writing such a kind comment, ‘ dear Peter!
