Mark,
why do you have a hyphen after "scar"
Soon lichen and time will cover the scar-
an attempt to misremember this place:
the only place we have left.
I thought it was some strange new word "scaran",
Are you attempting to use an en dash?
en dash – hyphen -
Soon lichen and time will cover the scar- with hyphen
Soon lichen and time will cover the scar– with en dash
en dash: is used to note an abrupt break or pause in a sentence. appropriate
hyphen: used to join a compound word, or separate syllables. not appropriate
Unless of course scaran is a real word, then please tell me what it means, as I no longer have access to and OED.
