~ a think peace ~
the gates are all locked
on the pen in my hand
so i leave for a stroll
down a long paper trail, and
de-compose my thoughts..
i scrub off my mind
where it's stuck on the page,
what a novel way to save me
and emulsify my metaphors,
but that's just the cost
of free association

The old trees wear their ghosts
gray beards of moss
hanging from limbs.
I walk through centuries,
through silence so thick
it has a pulse.
The lake blinks blue
through the tangle,
a secret the forest
almost kept from me.
Here, time does not pass.
Time watches.
Time waits. #photography #patagonia

Rudolph gets all the love, so letβs talk about the names of Santaβs other reindeer.
dasher | noun | one that dashes
dancer | noun | one that dances
prancer | noun | one that walks or moves in a spirited manner
Ok, those three are easy to understand.

brown leaf, drifting
curled in on itself
in the snow
and dreamed of the day
it unfurled to the sky
and tasted the
sweet warmth
of sunshine
not long ago

Whoa so cool that it takes place close to where you grew up!! I didn't realize they had changed the location of the book for the English version, but honestly I wish they hadn't. Set in the Netherlands is so much better in every way. I wonder what else kind of got lost in the translation π

Sometimes distance isnβt measured in miles at all.
Itβs the span between what the eyes can gather

Well, tbh I had mixed feelings. It's a unique kind of story and I loved that. For me though, it started off good and got a little less so by the end. But it isn't a bad book by any means

The lids they lower
As the world contracts
A spinning coin on black velvet
Thoughts and dreams
Blur silver
Sinking deeper
Into its dark balm
Following a broken trail of stones
Toward the deep and starless river
