Ghosts In The Mind

This was inspired by a memory of the phrase "Ghosts in the machine".  I had long wanted to write something which was related to this concept but, only now did it emerge.





Ghosts In The Mind  -  12 Mar 15

People who once
Shared my time and space
And place
In my mind
Sometimes return
To enter that place
Again
Sometimes because
I think of them
Occasionally
Because they insert
Themselves unbidden
And sometimes
All I have is
A mindful of ghosts





Sometimes the "visitors" are welcome ~ sometimes.
