Poem de Jour

I SEE GHOSTS

I see ghosts

Everywhere I turn
I see troubled souls
And hear them yearn
Make up your mind

Is it heaven or hell

This in between
Is no place to dwell

I see ghosts

Some fly and some crawl
Some scream

Some say nothing at all

But in their eyes
I see the story of the world
Drifting rudderless
Slack sails all unfurled

I see ghosts
When I close my eyes
Spirits trying
But unable to rise
They call out to me
In their sadness and woe
I see ghosts
Everywhere I go
