Living Like Ghosts

Here,
where we all
live
like ghosts,
hiding
in plain sight ..
Quite
unlike any
other
apparitions
you
may well
have
met, or seen
before ..
But rather
like
some other
awful
visitation ..
Staring down
and just
waiting for
any
subtle signs
of hesitation ..
Wanting
to be
exorcised
then stealing
the contents
of so
very many
unsuspecting
lonely
souls and all
their
bloody secrets ..
