The Ghost In Music

The Ghost In Music I'm dying all the time. I sit in a car and an Indian girl's ghost appears next to me. She is holding John Lennon's scalp. I don't know how she knows i'm a Beatles's fan. Maybe it's because we are all Beatles's fans. I wonder if i would be offended if she had Chuck Berry's scalp Would i see it as a hate crime. i'm dying all the time. The only way i'm not dying is if i'm playing music but then the ghost come. Cash comes and asks if the ghost in music is alive.

Ditto what Angeline said below, you have a great way of juxtaposing differing views. Very interesting.

You have some interesting metaphors in this piece as if you're evaluating your own conscience or choices.
