POETRY | By IB Iskov
A haze rises in a morning surrounded by trees, advances like buffalo in a field, fading before dawn A sift of light evaporates in a wisp like nothing ever happened One of those days not so different from this shadows went missing in abandoned fields, finely spun skins Memory is stubbly grass, dry leaves, a blank page collected in clear plastic the demise of sweet history meager cadaver recycled, rehashed, replayed In a moment or in an hour the whole sky may blow, breeze its way through shudders of time swoop and dip in landscape, repeat the poem
