FROM THE ASHES

25 SECONDS

The following represents scans of my recorded coughs after being diagnosed with Covid-19. Each 3 second interval was printed atop vellum and melded with letter transfer poetry to describe my symptoms, concerns, and general exhaustion over the course of the recovery."
Quoted in Ice Floe Press, 2022.

Thanks to Robert Frede Kenter for publishing a project of mine today at Ice Floe Press in the Pandemic Dispatches Series. If you haven't ever heard about Kenter, check through this website. I collaborate and contribute to Ice Floe Press, which is internationally engaged and based in Toronto, Ontario & Dothan, Alabama. I've attended Kenter's recent launch party for EDEN (a vispo collection). I am a regular contributor to Ice Floe Press because I believe the team champions diverse new international voices and drives creativity and community. I've contributed pieces to every Ice Floe Press prompt offered and invite you to share and submit to any of their projects if you are so inclined. Follow them on Twitter. I have forthcoming pieces in the following Ice Floe Projects:
  • WHAT WORK/WORLD OF WORK/WORK AND THE ANTHROPOCENE (forthcoming).
  • CASSANDRA/CHORALE – A Subterranean Chatter Project (forthcoming).
  • Pandemic Love and Other Affinities anthology (forthcoming).
CONCLUSION:
25 Seconds with Covid by Maggs Vibo, 2022.

    DEAR READER
    Welcome to my literature, music, and visual poetry project. My blog represents a method for deciphering the fragments left behind in the Anthropocene. Writers use ashes as a metaphorical device in storytelling. Have you ever wondered about the symbolism of ashes? Archaeological fragments of tablet, papyrus, bone, scroll, and pottery are recognizable the world over. In our digital era, however, our lost folkloric works disintegrate into dust. In this sense, I consume the silver flakes and use my he{art] as a vessel to rise from dystopic wastelands. I share lore through the oral tradition. Ashes to Ashes we continue on ∞ to infinity ∞ We are ash. We are stories. We are star dust. We are eternal.​
