Modern Poem of The Day
'Sympathy' by Eileen Myles
You Are Like a Ghost
You: you are like a ghost
Fluttering, pensive, in my memory,
Skirting the well-lighted rooms in which I read.
You: you are like a ghost;
I feel you inhabit
Those rooms where I must no longer go.
How events mock one, I am tempted to say.
