Clairvoyance

The spirit hovers.
I am not interested in a 
séance. Let me come face to face
with the book to share clean
or unclean thoughts.

Not able to print my deep 
angst. A clash of cultures. I 
will call the unprinted scream. The
dismembered limbs begin
a dance of unfolding
the hate.

It was a jig.
Of scaffoldings for the 
peacocks to shed their wings.
Everyone was falling for the green-gold
to be embossed on the dust
cover of life.
