I have been in another country for some time.

Of course you know I've been away, doing something. I've been resetting to zero in some ways, finding out what I deem valuable, and what I can leave at the wayside. It's been refreshing. consoling in some ways, and quite remarkable.

I've written quite a bit while I've been here, none of which I've put up for no reason, other than lack of access. I've done some poems that are to help me in learning Danish again, forming a straddling line between that and English, also illustrating frustration with the prospect of having to learn in the first place. here is one.
