Posession Poem by Wayne Leon Learmond

Possession
.......................


If you feel
that the spirits
are not with you
when you write...
then why write?

Even though spirits
may be from an
ebony light

Yes, even
darkness personified
is so right

For whether they be
from the light
or the dark

They guide
our hands
upon the keyboard

Each letter and word
is placed within our heads
by those secretaries
who are long since dead

And we are taken
in a trance-like state
Our minds are not ours
until we negate

everything that we
must put down
you see

For we must
purge the words
which they order we -

to place down
upon our
computer screens

Possession
is a beautiful thing
when you are a writer
of light
or
dark things

Our minds
our given up
to the powers that be

until they have said
all they need too...
through we...
