apparitions
p. 11
Texte intégral
a ghost is always in a state of flux
a traveller bridging landscapes
undecided
neither here nor there
both here and now
now and then
a migrant figure
slipping constantly between
always from and never of
always theirs but never ours
always new and never old
yet always both at once
