Poetic Ghosts
Even the dead tell stories
Through the flicker of the lights,
The blinds being pulled up at daylight,
They tell their stories through movement,
And occasionally even communication
The dead tell the best stories
Whether it’s tales told at their funerals
Or pieces of their history that’s just resurfacing
Sometimes, it’s the secrets left just between certain people that mean the most
The dead know what it means to tell good stories
Because they lived them
Their stories, their lives, are passed onto
The generations and generations to come that
Will know how even the dead tell stories.
