Ab initio
                        morning’s spray of enlightening angles
 
fumes
 
                                    pilgrimage
 
cross-variation
 
            disengaging
 
                                                lock of my sleeping
 
obstructing vision.  Outside
 
a
 
               conversation of dreams: illusions
 
                                                abstract particles
 
fulfilling whole dexterity
 
renaming such tolerable
 
            machinery, laughter of humans
 
 
 
comprising variation.

—after Michel Petrucciani’s Home
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Not
 
where the coat of my
 
exterior journeys is
 
 
 
                        nor
 
                        where the bed of my
 
                        night’s delectation resides
 
 
 
            altered devotion this definitional collaboration
 
holding whole meaning of where home’s actual
 
skeleton ages with my following shadow,
 
 
 
                        this
 
place of placement’s elegant construction
 
                                                                        is
 
near the resting body of her spontaneous
 
            rest, the love of her need
 
houses all walls needed to retrace
 
physical commendation.
