VOICES/ THE MAN
WITH THE
FLEXIBLE CONSCIENCE
the house is old,
silence falls from the ceiling
to fill cracked cups, as
sunseeds seep in neat parcels
through frost-glass windows
to collide in soft detonation
across the sink,
I am alone…
from
somewhere beneath me
disembodied tentacle voices
squirm through the walls,
snakes of syllables and
crawls of consonants
meander up the stairwell,
to echo the light escaping
beneath a ground-floor door,
words blend smoothly into
unevenly painted woodwork and
slide gently along emulsion walls
to fall and congeal into pools
in odd corners of the hallway,
occasional laughter hastens
up the stairs, step by step,
as talk dances and whores
to disguise its banality, it swings
euphoric from the light-bulb
when it discovers a clever phrase,
taps on the grease-encrusted stove
to discover its depth, and
echoes itself from the mirror,
the house is old,
I am alone…
