molding mental movie maker
where you been all day
toying with my mixed up mind
melancholy words display
where were you when breath was shallow
and ghosts beckoned me to come
beating on the shadow box
with your jimbe drum
i see spirits casting souls
far beyond the wall
rest beside my body vapor
then only to fall
you can't recognize
that nimble fingers scribe
visitations from my kin
and a long lost tribe
i sense their comely weight
in chills that seize my heart
lifeless i would co-exist
blight soul will ne'er depart
