No Certain Doubt

No Certain Doubt

 

Every now and then she

   

wonders ..

Did he really save her voice

on some

 

  newfangled digital device ..

Or did he

somehow merely trap it in

   a pretty shell ..

Now that, would surely be

   more romantic ..

Yet still the uncertainty of it

stalks her

and sometimes, in the dead

of night she

   

reaches out and calls a friend ..

Then seemingly,

   history repeats itself again ..

I have read this poem several times and although there is a passing romantic thought contained in its lines, I found sinister here. Having said that the mind can play games with over thinking in the dead of night. Can’t be easy being a woman living on your own these days. You have left me with a creepy feeling. Keep the doors and windows locked. Don’t answer the phone and get a dog. I mean a dog not a rat on a lead. Good morning Neville.

This reminds me of the tale Little Mermaid. The word choices and the images are telling and it seems to be a grown up version of this tale. Wondering in the middle of the night…

Many of us do that for one reason or another
