Writing is a socially acceptable form of schizophrenia.
~E.L. Doctorow~
My Ghostly Voice Of Inspiration
It teases my senses, and gets me to write
And keeps me awake, thru the odd restless night
It pounds thru my brain, like an endless parade
Then pantomimes life, in it's silent charade
A phase, from a page ignites thoughts all ablaze
Or traps my dumb brain, in a haze of a maze
From song or a tune, I am no way....IMMUNE
Or the sight of the moon, will confuse and bemuse
Ideal sights or sounds, can only confound
And distract me from facts, as my day spins around
As memory grips, and I slip to the past
In its grip, I am whipped, and I'm set in its cast
Sometimes its quiet..... or RIOTS and ROARS!
Its prideful and vain.....and it won't be ignored!
My mind is its vessel.......we wrestle in phrase!!
It haunts and it taunts me, I am child and prey
Days later, when I read what "WE" wrote
With my "GHOST" over shoulder...I'm her means to promote
She has her agenda, with me as her "PEN"
I'm her scribe in this life, till she whispers....THE END

You'll find that a lot of things come and go, even our health, but if you have a strong positive attitude, you can take it to the grave with you. Then after you die it will crawl out of the ground and kick butt.
Stunning, pulse racing, spine tingling thriller poem. Excellent work.
This is most beautiful poem. Congratulations. I also thank you for your nice comments.
Greetings and blessings From Atlanta.
