I am hearing familiar funeral voices now
I have a voice in my head a new voice still kicking through the shut dark womb of ideas I have I will never get around to do. I hear it first when I was waiting for a parking space to empty down by the pier district for the hotel as I really liked their pool but — no that is not right, I heard it first when I was at the cemetery talking about my day to someone that I had really wished somehow would be in it, a place where there are no laughs or looks of joy or a shred of colour do people employ under the watch of the sun, I heard the voice that sounded like every father of mine and every love I had lost saying I had a gift a thing so tediously and generously given to me as I am not special or important but I, more than others on days that I get high on despair could almost pretend that I could write something close to nice, and I heard the voice. I heard it spew all sort of random things and crazy begging and insane pleas, it said that like a child I have dreams I had when I was once a child, it told me many things and many things had left me shook, but one thing made me very curious as to the sources the voice had as it said perhaps I should write a book.
Much will be left for the reader to decipher; after all it may resonate to them as they wish. However, the main theme behind the writing of this poems is dreams, and metaphorical voices of those dead which warn the persona to not make the same mistake they made. Published date:
