Ghosts (ii)

Sometimes they come at nightNot always singly, but in pairsAt ease, with smilesTalking about mundane thingsWithout axes to grindHere’s the first, then his motherCircling like sharksAt ease, with their smiles~ CLP 04/08/2025

Sometimes they come at night
Not always singly, but in pairs
At ease, with smiles
Talking about mundane things
Without axes to grind
Here’s the first, then his mother
Circling like sharks
At ease, with their smiles
