Frostbitten mind - Jotunheim - Nine realms
Through darkness
and eternal sunshine
darkness and brightness
like never-ending dreams
frostbitten mind
awaits in another dream
thoughts
repeated
the pebble falls inside your mind
thoughts
repeated
thoughts
being broken
tongues
being broken
day and night
the mind is playing tricks
the night is long
the day is long
time stopping
the mind is flying in circles.

You can read (and listen at) the poem at the Artipeeps webpage here.
This poem is part of my online collaboration with
Nicky Mortlock´s The
Nine Realms project that began on October 2014 and that is inspired by the Norse Sagas (specifically the 9 realms of
norse mythology). This project involves near-on 50 Twitter poets, arts,
musicians and sculptors, and will run online for 9 months culminating in a
poetry, art and music exhibition( and even a Viking boat!) in Hanse House King’s
Lynn, Norfolk, UK across the Heritage Open Day weekend, in September 2015.
