Long before memory
In a past without form
They began to appear in the darkness of the night
Then, as memory began to screen them out
They slipped into language
Hiding between letters and jumping out between words
At first it was thought that ghosts would be forgotten in this new electronic age
But as things turned out, they began using electronic gadgets for their own purposes
I am anxious
I am afraid of the living
Maybe I just prefer the company of memories
Afterimages
I look at all these places
Where just traces of people can be felt
Why can’t I forget
It’s as if I am responsible
Why do I wake up so often in the night with the feeling that they’re watching me?
At night I feel I’m part of this world
The world outside
Where are they?
Inside or outside?
Here?
There?
Then?
Now?
A memory of something that never was present
Can you see it?
When you look closely, right there in the corner?
Don’t look now.
Captured by magnets. Feeding on electricity
Screens. Breathing
Bleeding through a skin of glass
The light. Blue
Ghost, there is a shell for you
Inside you’ll hear a sigh
A foggy lullaby
There is your song from me
