they beckon me
they whisper as I sleep
touch my shoulder
with unseen fingers
sending waves of dead static through my soul
the after
the in-between
the remaining energy
reaching for some connection
to their mortal coil
they find solace in my belief
a ground for their whispering pulse
the remnants of a soul once lived
the static that refuses to leave
completely
just now upon completing this piece at 2:00 am, I heard unexplained noises in my kitchen which I have my back to. not sure if they approve or disapprove the piece...but they have certainly made their presence known to me...
