Through Abandoned and Present

Øen, Morten: Gjennom forlatt og tilstede

this is the way it glows in the dark

this thought is gateway, same echo, eyes

open, etc.

this scene

perspective is a different perspective

what shows is face

and the room is left warmer

there is nobody who talks, nobody is blamed

fall is not calculated

Morten Øen’s ninth book is a cycle of poems where the central bodies are an ”I” and a ”you”. These are beautiful poems, also where the insights bring forebodings of chaos and disintegration.
