@Jbrown214 You can use this method:
parser = PlaintextParser.from_string(string, Tokenizer("english"))
The documentation for sumy isn't the greatest so try looking at the source code
In order to get LSA use: from sumy.summarizers.lsa import LsaSummarizer
Thank you @Jbrown214 and @jeffquach for asking and answering. I had the same question.

How do I use this LSA summarizer for string of text instead of a text file?
