Animism is Infinite, by Rune Kjær Rasmussen

poems

The second collection of Danish poet and animist Rune Kjær Rasmussen.

From the author of Kaleidoscopic Forests comes a new collection of poems exploring the wonder, magic, and beauty in the everyday.

The bird is a flute that plays itself.
Sometimes holding up a tree with its wings.
Covered in clay it wrestles slowly with a certain
way of moving, which makes it dry and fall of
in flakes. The imprint of feathers on clay is a
good book scattered like sun drops, spotting
the presence of all the other beings coming to this
natural library.
