Snowstorm In Southern Tlön, Joshua T. Parks
Snowstorm In Southern Tlön, Joshua T. Parks
The Hilltop Review
This is a wintry poem inspired by the nounless language of Jorge Luis Borges's fictional planet Tlön. It describes a snowstorm using only verbal forms and function words. It also hints at the timelessness of Tlön's philosophical idealism and the tendency of nature to disregard human boundaries.
