Through Abandoned and Present
Øen, Morten: Gjennom forlatt og tilstedethis 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.
