Haunted; By whom, if not the dead? In origin, to haunt-- To rise from the grave; Adapted-- often thought of Memories, things unrequited. A soul tortured by objects Is one who never-- even-- lived. Haunted-- by whom If not those left Burnt, unburied, Dead by theft? Six million constant ghosts, In addition to those Left on speed dial on my phone, Those placed on this earth, the Guardians, Who were cut down wearing green, And the one whose deathbed I attended-- They Will Not Give Me Peace.
