Apples on a tree branch covered in ice. Title: Bureaucracies of Water. Quotes: 'A ghost apple is something the name of which I keep forgetting' and 'so I call them glass apples instead, which is more what they look like.' Poet: Alicia Byrne Keane.

Alicia Byrne Keane's poem is one where the science of an event adds to its mystery. In fact, everything described in relation to ghost apples becomes an enigma, like frozen water formed around an absence.
