ON THE SOUL AND ITS ORIGIN

The question 
I ponder, but 

could never dare
confront

is never: excuse 
me, is there
anybody in there? 

It's more like: 
how many? 
And where 

did everybody 
come from? 
And: are you all 

politely
taking turns

denying my 
inquiry for all 
its absurdity? Or 

(and here, please, god 
bless the auspicious-
ness of my ignorance)

lambasting me 
with silence 

in simultaneous 
reply?
