I felt you
last night
hugging me
and giving me a kiss
you spiritual ghost!
you jumped to my husband
and then the girls
You said you could be
anywhere
all over the world
at the same time
and this
is bliss.

One of the Angels
An old, bent over woman with long white hair
and black clothes just walked
into the restaurant in which
we sit
asking the waiter if a woman
came in with children in tow.
The waiter replied, “No–
I haven’t seen anyone…”
And in that very instant,
we thought she was a fantastic ghost!
A shimmering illusion
A nightmarish fantasy
A morbid and slightly provocative secret–
Whoosh!
She vanished
as quickly as she came in
A relic of a century passed
the visage of a phantom neighborhood
to be relished only
by the book readers
and
silent–
(albeit arbitrary)
truth
seekers.
