Spirits

38428
This tag is the least literal and most ambiguous. A number of poems straightforwardly are telling a tale about a given spirit, often associated with a particular landscape, but there where other instances of hauntings, or the supernatural, which though not explicit, recall a sense of a nonhuman resonance permeating into the human world.
