I’m falling apart, pieces after pieces
Heavy rain and scorching winds
Verticality has been undermined
A red bark that peels into wide strips
At this time, I strip myself of everything can hold my hands
I strip myself of everything can hold my feet
If ice can calm a burning heart, there are no appropriate words to say goodbye
Here I am, facing a fork in the road
No shortcut to overcome a life of misery
Modern life threw me into confusion land
Slipping under wolves fangs
Trees patterns on concrete wall
Forest skyline on a label
Fir scented candle
I used to think I lived into the wild
I used to think I loved being into the wild
My daily life is wildlife. I’m extinguished and the sun has drowned

Out in the wild, so perfect is this mud stained sky
Out in the wild, so perfect is this mud stained sun
Under leaden skies
The strain of constantly searching for a beauty in silver clouds
“Hold the string, you’re launching.” Loaded down by words, by thoughts. Shouts and whispers to wind up the springs
My body is crawling against stones
The same rocks I used to feed myself
I swallow gravels
I could even eat my eyes
Gallows of love for greener grassland
Shouts and whispers to wind up the springs
I could even eat my eyes
Forget their color, they have burnt into silence
They witnessed so many searches for greater purposes
Something to die for
The beast currently residing under my skin deserves a rest

From leading down stairs as adventure trails
to appealing paths that I seldom chose
Sticking needles in paws, I wish I was an old black bear
But you’re the tiger over me
Time is something so far away when it’s so hard to breathe
I can tolerate the coldest winters as the driest climate
Transparency : the best adaptation for survival in those harsh days.
Landscape is where sky meets earth
And as the sun is so low in the horizon
Life is blackened
I feel alone. I am alone. Please, let me sleep

Tundra

I’m so tired of blinking
I feel sick of hearing my thoughts
A desert-like self-expression
The spiral of sunless days
The experience of silence
A spotless mind as vital as breathing
Wars, desolation, weariness
A millstone for unique distraction
A poignant scene of defeat
I look the ice, I see my brain
I’m matching loneliness to be at peace with time
I wish I hadn’t known this past
It burnt me and pelted my heart
Sunshine is the expanse of a former life
I would have been sharper than the Fredvang and Skottinden
To be the king of my kingdom
Or I may very well be an animal
Taking the tundra as my winter home
I would have thought nothing can break the ice
But the more northerly I walk, the thinner the shell is

I will never see the largest tree in the world
I’ve processed an inverted migration
I’m welcoming myself in a vacuum
No mechanic system to fake the needs
My limbic system will judge me
I would have torn up the sky and tired out the daybreak
Blizzard is roaring the loudest
Walking beside fissure, I’m splitting my chest. Nothingness
Joy has been quarantined
Memories are rolling over and collapsing
And I’m leaving gravity
Void is so pristine
No past to paste. No turn to adorn
I was not who I am
One more extinction in Holocene
Boreal found me
