Ghost of the River

By lupus tenebrae

 



Muzak specters writhe in dancing,
the afterlife again unfurled.
snide remarks, unspoken and twirled,
hidden menace in his prancing.

Mirrored irises,
damaged viruses,
reflect intention.
A stoic gaze,
in summer haze,
soul intervention.

Façade falters to smirk uncurled,
with his mystery entrancing.
lifeless vocals apt to lancing,
every heart within this world.

Random ripples,
life so simple,
timid spirit.
Song soft spoken,
vow unbroken,
modest poet.

?Quien es el fantasma del rio?
Es una memoria perdida.
