Abstract
Birch Bark Torn at the Seam
by Orla Mara
I pulled this from a walk along the Vantaanjoki in February — a strip of birch bark I'd been carrying in my coat pocket for weeks, finally pressed against a page torn from a 1974 Finnish-Swedish dictionary. The cold does something to paper that no scanner can fake. I wanted the seam to feel like a wound that had already decided to heal.
