Nov PAD – Day 9

Weird

There is a shadow projecting on the wall
Is that a reflection or just the film
My neighbour’s watching?

I hear that strange noise in the back yard
Shall I go and check the dog or do I hear
My neighbours throwing a party?

“Weird that you would care for shadows and sounds
When all you need is in this box.”

Hey, who’s speaking? What’s that wretched voice?
Come in the light and stop molesting
Or I’ll scratch you from existence with
This very finely sharpened pencil.
