ARCHIPELAGIC GHOST SOUND NIGHTS

night wanderer careful stains of quails
count the wolf dens and the fire dams
for in such a den the evidence is amassing
where skeleton parts are twitched humans steaming sandy beaches visited by forgotten icefloes
of lost feet ghost paths swan cadavers in the rotting wrackbeds
nightscripture winnowing snipes in the air

(may night at the tank shooting range of the archipelago island Utö, 1994)
