   Obsesive ghost… that intensity when it chains to you to a shared past. Thank you, Rose.

       My fault entirely, Rose – I’ve been out of the loop for about a month, with various things going on/kicking off. Events, dear lady, events…

   Very nice. And I liked the ambiguity of the title getting sorted out by the last line.

     Cool! I’m sure you were on the edge of your chair or um, perch with excitement; wondering when the title will make sense! Haha!! I’m sorry you had to wait until the very end. I hope your fine feathers weren’t overly ruffled. 😊

   If you lose hope, the game is over, ultimately only you can send the demons away, but a little help is great .

    We’re all haunted by something, right? Look on the bright side — a haunted memory won’t break your dishes or levitate your bed. Or cause your head to spin. Or slam the door during the night. Poltergeists can be very rude.

      Lol. Well, since you’ve put it that way… Are poltergeists as rude as the guy Mort beat up with a plate?

        Hey…Mort gently pushed the man’s face toward the counter and the plate happened to be there. Innocent mistake. It could happen to anyone.

        Poltergeists are more rude — they’ll break your dishes for no reason. Or for fun.

    Beautifully written…lovely sentiments at the end of the possibility of breaking free. The dark…it does have its own appeal, though.
    Great work. 🙂
