He is walking towards me and looking at me and he is talking. I think he is speaking to me but as he gets closer I see he has an earpiece and that he is talking on the phone. She is behind me though only just and she speaks to me in a tone of friendliness and I turn thinking that she really is speaking to me. But I notice a dangling wire and her eyes detached as if looking into the middle distance and I realise that she too is on the phone.

This happens all the time now and I am often fooled. It is like I am on a ghost ship full of babbling apparitions.

And still I wonder, who is the real ghost?
