Why “flark” is a great word
FLARK — [Noun] A water-filled depression or hollow within a peat bog, less vegetated than its surroundings. Borrowed from Swedish flark, meaning a bog or swamp overgrown with tufts of grass, or a clearing in a bog with more water and less vegetation than its surroundings. Unlike a “quagmire,” which evokes treacherous, engulfing instability, or a “hummock,” its raised and drier opposite, a flark is a neutral, topographic fact of the wetland. It is a cold, tea-colored eye of water held in a cup of sphagnum; a dark, peat-stained mirror for passing clouds; a simple, sodden vacancy where the land has quietly given way. It is the quiet subsidence that proves the landscape is not flat, but patiently, subtly, collapsing in upon itself.
