Monologue Of His GhostA Poem by karmic
Behold the satire of the greater fool
The advent of his ghost's penance almost tangible For it warps and twist words at its leisure and will Because only to the writer could it ever be real Indifference, opposition, festers and dorms And alleviates onto paper, in varieties of forms The writer confides in his silhouette, his ghost, his muse For it is thee only moment his iniquities come to use It lifts his spirits like a chariot, drives him to his grave like a hearse It's a divine blessing intertwined with a sinister curse It open it's mouth and begins to say " I'am forever, and yet here I'm stuck to this day Reminder of your past, sovereign of your tomorrow, and voice to your present I'am all, but not omniscient My voice as loud as yours but never to be heard For you are the cage and I'am the bird Things like me, invisible and soft sounds Help built your perception and all that surrounds I hold your secrets, both pretty and gory For your mind is Plato's cave and I both the prisoner and it's allegory Don't mistake my candor as just idle hubris Because I know only through you do I truly exist I await the day that I'm bold, iridescent, unbound For then I won't be invisible or just another soft sound." The ghost's monologues allude to self righteous remedies For only it's beholder can see its sublimity The writer puts down his pencil for he's had enough Often he forgets the belligerence of his conscience can be more than rough The ghost become mere echoes reverting back to the deepest parts of his head As he calls it a night and goes off to bed He mutters "you say you're a prisoner and exist only through me So why am'I the one yearning to be free?" © 2013 karmicReviews
