all the ghosts

"Are you there?
Is it wonderful to know
All the ghosts...
Freak my selfish out
My mind is happy
Need to learn to let it go
I know you'd do no harm to me"
Anathema // Are You There?

That's what I call a "woo, woo" photograph; very mystical. It communicates to me more the sacredness of life than ghosts (maybe holy ghosts??). It's definitely one of your best.

Can't think of the right words --maybe magical, as in a kind of magical realism.
