Fog of Recognition uses a fall on the moor to explore fractured memory and selfhood, where fog-shrouded landscape mirrors cognitive disorientation. Past selves surface, the ordinary world resumes, and recognition proves unstable, unsettled, and faintly menacing after injury.
Socks
A brief domestic meditation on worn socks warming on a radiator, their colours misaligning, threads threatening to unravel. Small decisions stall, pressure is deferred, and use becomes uncertain, as time and heat test what still holds.
Unfastened
UnfastenedHis mind was peculiar.Everyone agreed.A useful fact.A sentence gathered,lost its knees,sat down.He knew the outline –not the words, not the will –then misplaced even that.They stood blinkingas he drifted on, unfastened,mist practising being a road.
