On the trail of Raskolnikov

Spark and Dust

1.

to the living and the dead
inevitably dust inevitably
man’s most frightening invention
strikes a devil’s third
withering the land of people
to return the impossible
act of having been alive

2.

to the dead and the living
inevitably collide inevitably
the return is a fiction for its self
and certainty mocks the mirror
to be made in image
disassembled in the course of fire
but still a spark in passing


A rose for dostoyevsky bw
