Moving Through Walls


"Moving through Walls"


There is no form 
to the watershed 
of memory

ghosts take 
many forms 
there is no body

just a reaching 
ever outward 
pulling slippery time 

back in, like a line
cutting like a scissor
through sheets of words

moving 
like a fish 
walking on water
 
effortlessly 
through walls

(LadyLabyrinth / 2023)

Indeed, spirits have only the form we give them, more felt than seen -- more listened to than heard -- sometimes adhering like an abrasive skin, distracting us from self purpose, that of developing our own free floating illusions. Some Ghosts simply upset, wandering, deprived of a body before allotted time. Blessings my friend. Your writing always multi dimensional -- always a mentally stimulating pleasure to read. I am certain I only grasp a fraction of great depth.

Thank's DiMino. A writer's (poet's) journey. It commenced with the music and the visual in the video, which promoted several multi-dimensional thoughts, and I mean several, like a bomb exploding and shards flying in different directions. I commenced with the reversal of time, which in itself, is pointless. As a writer friend of mine advises, leave it up to the reader to interpret.

Reading again, I think you may be talking mainly about memory (my mind often taking unwarranted leaps) -- but its all good. Blessings.
