Listening to Me

I hear voices,

Unlike Joan of Arc

Or some crystal gazing psychic

With Tarot cards spread before her,

Like skittering squeaky rats

They compete for my mind

As though it were a ball of cheese

And those voices must feed on it

After ages of a hungry outbreak.

Some are like chirping birds

Come home for their clamoring chicks

With food in their painted clipper beaks.
