Poetry: Ghost from the past

MIRRORS

Those dead guys are singing to me again...

Through radio speakers as ancient as I.

Stereophonic. Hypnotic.

The bottle of Chardonnay is half empty.

My memories, half full.

The Fear overtakes my breath.

Memories, only half full.

Four hours to sleep as Putman's poetry

Crawls across my brain.

Turn it up!

Haggard - Hall - Hell.

The past crawls up my spine

with a knife in its teeth.

Whitley sings the soundtrack

as the walls crumble around my mind.
