I AM A GHOST
I am a ghost,
that much is true.
I ring and I ring
like a bell unspooled.
The sound automatically accelerates:
lightning on speed,
ostritch feathers, pink fruit,
a scream, a shatter, a chant.
These are my weapons,
the ones who cannot be judged.
These are my weapons,
eating with my hands.
I am a ghost,
that much is true.
And I will live my life
invisible, uncouth, and true.
