there is a ghost in
my house
you can hear it
go-wow!?
the specter of a
sparrow-
sounds sweet!
shadow´s tweet..
-and i jump,
and he laughs,
raucously and floats
away..

theres a ghost in
my house
or some lonely
old
mouse-hard to say
as one grows
older
is it me or
her
memories
are dim
today or
tomorrow
a limb or
a whim
who knows
times breech
no belief
less teeth
out of reach...
but dance o
o yeah
the groove grows
fair..

nothing is as it is-
as the slice of onion
said to the lettuce-
something is missing..

they left out the tomato-
no no no no..
humanity,the pickle,flavo-
we don´t know..

nothing is as it is,
my father would say:
nature abhors a vacuum
i would say um-

what about space?
what about the space
in me burger?
hum..!

nothing is as it is
in actuality
(a fine word)
not even reality..

and certainly not
burgers but if
you can get fifty million?!
a fine world..

this is what i didn´t-
write..
Michael John Aug 2023
this is what i did-
nothing i didn´t want
that was imperative
the way to live

it was all positive..
beautiful structures
every ways-let others
be..

give me red
and shine the
way
stars and dostoyevski..
