A Room of My Own: Haunting Ghost

for Peter De Vries who claims that Nostalgia isn't what it used to be.

in the attic

nostalgia is growing old

to keep

or not to keep her

the big question

upon knowing

I am going to send her

to a rest home

nostalgia stops talking

and starts a hunger strike

I shoot

nostalgia dead

my muse

condemned to the void

between the lines

this white night

an apparition

of nostalgia

corkscrews

my attic ceiling
