Knot for nothing.


What started as a comment from Wendy Taleo to "Speaking their Language"* took on a life of its own and then Kevin tied us in knots...

As they say in Yorkshire "there's nowt as queer as folk."

Ghostwriting & Marginalia.

..
Ghostwriting & Marginalia.

Ghostwriter.

I haunt these words. 
I hear their steps.
They pause...

But I remain static.

I haunt these words.
I am type-cast.
This cursor beating heart.

I hear them coming.
I feel them standing over me.

Ghostwriting.

I am this corpse.
I fear they think me dead, yet
I haunt these words.

Locked in, comatic,
Powerless to act, yet
I haunt these words.

They sharpen scalpels.
They take its organs.
They take its eyes.
They see nothing.

I am this ghostwriter.
Post scriptum
Post mortem.
Alive and Whole.
I haunt these words.


Marginalia.

"Sweet is the lore which Nature brings;
Our meddling intellect
Mis-shapes the beauteous forms of things:—
We murder to dissect."

William Wordsworth.
