ghost concert
I play for the empty room
Filling its deep silence
Plucking strings in a whisper
The notes glide in distortion
My raspy voice barely audible
Quick breaks to inhale the
Sickly sweet of metal raspberry watermelon
And the ghastly clouds that slip through my lips
The back of my throat is cold with
The remnants of chemical
Fingers fly along the neck
The ghosts gather round
Play to forget them
The translucent figures encompass me
Louder louder
The nauseating saccharinity
My head filling with dense air
A heaviness consumes me
Overcome by nothing and everything at once
I resign myself to the stars
