The title of this poem gave the writer away.
Its antics like this regarding writing style that set you on a path that distinguishes you, which by the way, is a good thing.
Are there poltergeist, I have heard some claim the answer was hard to bare in any true offering.
My latest dog, I have had a few, checks out the room,
the room with no sounds, she gets spooked,
there is something there, honestly I do not know what,
but she does.
If only dogs could talk. They hold so many secrets,
and seem to know many things we humans
simply do not.

paralyzed by fear, a confrontation, as if, in war.
anything true, that is made more than abundantly
clear.
you know, I often might materialize something that
happened in the past, a trigger that someone tries
to block far off to forget.

The poltergeist, the ghost of the dead among us
all slowly coming into the room where you can
suddenly feel their coldness, and slowly,
ever so, ever so slowly, the fridge opens, it/'/s bright light
illuminates the darkness.
If I was dead and lived in some middle state,
the fridge is the first place I/'/d go towards.
Go towards the light, Go towards the two days old delicatessen sandwich, and hopefully, some Pliny the Elder, bottle of beer.

The thought of it claws at my soul.
I am hungry and thirsty, and scared, really
really scared.

My dog is grabbing at my pant legs, no, don/'/t do it,
stay, she barks, stay you stupid human.

I am rendered unconscious and when I awake,
I find her sitting on the sofa with my Pliney, and
the old sandwich, and she/'/s watching
Leave it to Beaver, and wagging her tail.

Peace!

Peace!
