"Maybe because the history of any ghost story is a ghost story unto itself, which is to say another story completely"[-

Perhaps it is significant that remnant and revenant come so close to touching one anothers' reflections,

                   and find themselves within a memory
so, so long
                                                                                 
                                                                                ago, which takes on some other form, in its half-
resolved indifference, like smog creeping into a
                                                                               forest,
                                                                it distorts.
