Exophony
Under the influence of another tongue
Under the influence of a glass in shards
Under the influence of a perpetual pandemic
Under the influence of a second booster
Under the influence of crass appeal
Under the influence of social regression
Under the influence of climate change
Under the influence of a fata morgana
Follow the blinders
The blindness
The blind

What I’m Reading:
“During the pandemic
we are a forest—trees
standing alone together.”
— Dunya Mikhail / “Tablets VI”
