A dog wakes up in the middle of the woods.
He has no memory left about where he is or why he is there
“I opened my eyes with a dim nostalgia.
I woke up but still hazy.
I see nothing because of the dense trees and darkness
No light. Can’t tell whether it’s night or day.
This forest seems strangely unrealistic because of this thick fog.
I was standing here alone without a single sound.”
