The automatic doors swung open and then closed
nobody entered the shop
or so the shopkeeper thought glancing across
yet a customer observed
a transparent shape the premises did penetrate
the image in her mind did infiltrate!
As a few others shopped browsing in the store intently
no interaction but music playing
she focused her gaze particularly on the middle aisle
as items seemed to levitate
then just drop gently to the floor with an echoing thump
that only made her jump!
Backed away alarmed against the main counter with force
knocking over a large display
now drawing the managers complete angry attention
at this unexpected disruption
was unable to explain the mess or behaviour in any way
did not know what to really say!
Nobody else had witnessed anything nor shape did see
had fallen over got up apologising
people gathered confused tightly around her petite frame
was feeling so embarrassed
the fact that the goods were strewn around was ignored
with them all only felt discord!
Before her saw clearly the shape coming towards them
as it came to a high stack of beans
they crashed to the floor making everybody scatter
then as it entered so it left
through the automatic doors now not the only witness
following her gaze there became a stillness!
The atmosphere became unsettled as the doors opened
then closed yet nobody was close by
on examination of the security footage a shape was seen
and the items falling to the floor
but no explanation was determined of how it occurred
a suggestion of ghosts was thought absurd!
The woman knew it was true and set out to find out more
as life went on but shoppers were weary now in the store !
