voices, from another room
thought long empty:
visions, haunting ghosts.
(i rarely search
my memory, these days;
there are
far too many voices)
as you investigate, find
nothing, and stoop
to tidy, you refuse to wonder
what might have answered, had
you responded to that
long-remembered voice.

I wonder if anyone wondered. Yes, a ms. titled after a poem in it. If there’s a question that seems obvious, I don’t know, roughly coeval. *It is also Schrodinger’s cat and I also don’t know how to umlaut easily–okay, Doc, I’m too lazy.
I thought of making up a poll on how unpleasant people find my prosaic ramblings and realized they would probably tell me. They’re welcome to do so as long as it doesn’t involve vulgarity too extreme*. If they make me feel really paranoid I’ll just up the home defenses and rely on my nonexistent hearing.
OOPS. Tell me if I get too highbrow in the language too. I was just doing that. I’ve tried to avoid it as much as I can for many years now–25? Advice from a writer. Sometimes doesn’t work with poetry at all and maybe overdoing it now. <burnout> It was mostly an appropriate gesture to make at this point, and I hope that makes sense to someone…
