The Haunting

The image fast painted and good, adorns a naked wall. Seeming like it is half-alive, I think I heard it call. If you're casually looking, then it's looking elsewhere. But if you are really looking, it looks back with a stare. I don't believe in ghosts per se, but there is mystery. Whether or not ghosts would believe, in someone such as me! date: 2/26/23

There are a lot of paintings that look like the person is watching you. I always thought it was cool. It never bothered me but then again I do not believe in ghosts either. An easy read, Meru.

Thanks, Daniel, The painting of my friend's grandfather, hangs in her haunted-looking house. She also showed me pictures she took of orbs floating around the house. I appreciate your interest, and your comment, Meru.
