06: Open - June 2021

Silence

Kindling tops mirrored
in the magnificent glass.
Desolate landscape —
You have arrived at a place
where dreams are made.
A fire in the air,
incandescent ideas.
Letters slipping beyond my reaches — 
Creak, crack, bridges breaking.
A shattered soul clinking,
“I am Silence, surveying the clouds; 
the sun again, I think.”

School-shoe black hair
Towering over the trees
Puffing all the autumn leaves askew 
Dust melts into my lungs
I dropped down
and down
and down—

-Emilia Koczy
