Description
Afterword is a long poem in fragments, with some lines folded over onto the next, creating a unique visual effect. It's a work that explores memories and meditations, dreams and visions, often accompanied by images of destruction and desolation.
The poem delves into themes of limits and the possibility of surpassing them, and its tone is characterized by spiritual insight and wisdom conveyed through conversational language. This writing style is reminiscent of European poets who occupy a space where traditional genres cannot reach.
