in the haunted maze
sawdusted with flakes of skin
a ghost or someone who claims to be a ghost
wanders in the house made of my mother
or of someone who says that that is who she is
and I guess only in the shelter of her walls is it possible

listen in the ghost's state of mind
only the shadows of things register
but there is a sun in the sky
and not an eye staring down
