Ghostwalking

Face down, fixed, not on feet.
Wind blows, chill, darkened street.

Bright light, cold, draws you in.
Feet move, numb, where've you been?

Don't know, why, sorry, what?
Hold on, wait--

Fingers, hot, nimbly read.
Mountain, hill, not you, tree.

Noodles, ears, deafness choice.
Pleasure, love, taken, voice.

Move it, you; sorry there.
Missed you, just, cannot bear.

Clatter, hard, ground shatter.
My soul, stop, I do matter.

Pick up, life, brush it off.
Check now, slow, nothing lost.

Again, off, always on
line up, load, time-how-gone.

Ghostwalk, you, ghostwalking.

Neck bent, must, like, so much.
Before, gone, for a touch.

A touch! One, just the one.
The dead, you, crave the done.

Devour, more, always more.
Eaten, grave, yours is poor.

Writing, done, tapping in.
Refuse, walk, seeing, not.

Away, split, together, sit.
Apart, lands, consume plans.

Walk on, shell, fun'ral bell.
Silent, we, too many be.

Breathing, kill. Living, stilled.

Ghostwalk, you.

Ghostwalk, me.
