more odd
or less
if the dead
did not
leave us?
Anyone's
guess. But
my sense is:
a ghost
at my disposal
who always
stayed the same;
who always
remained
in the place
I expected;
who never
changed clothes,
or the expression
on its face
since the day
I watched it
pass
would have to be
the absolute last
thing on Earth
I would ever
seek out to ask
for advice.
