Speak to the Ghost

And shimmering Moon
Like a face
Beneath water
Rippling gloom
Bind it and cast it
From the room
Let it shriek
and moan
till the crack
of doom.
Obsessed
And oppressed
By memory,
The wind
Stirs the curtain
In mockery…
And nothing
Of our time
Or world is left,
But the image
Of you
In your white dress.

Beautifully written. Now I am confused at what is being described. Is it the moon or a lady? Your choice of words ? Very impressive that it leaves me guessing .
Ah, a very profound question, and the poem musn't just emote but make sense - The Ghost is made up of common things - it shimmers like the Moon's face under rippling water, it draws power from memory and associations, it flows like the curtain on the breeze and it reminds the poet of the bride he never possessed, as he pictures her in her white dress :)
This is amazing.
